The Norton # 107 should reach you Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest, put it to the test.
Did you stabilize the axe head as you worked on it or did you free hand the haed & the puck?
I tried a 3x8 stone once on an axe & found it difficult in working the edge to a good convex bevel. The shape of the stone & the way I held it was difficult,,,yet the round stone allows my hand/wrist more range of movement & an easier better convex result,,I did stabilize the head each time.
I have used a beat up Swaty to polish each time.

I never get to chop wood & my outdoor lumberjack activities are limited to what I see on my 48" Samsung,,,,BUT,,,I hope to make it up north someday & apply what I've learned on T.V. & get lessons in person from a real woodsman,,,,maybe before I die.
