Humble greetings James. Hope you find What you seek here. Plenty to learn from and plenty of helpful people
.
Pictures, pictures, pictures. We love pictures.
Honing is like oware or chess. You can learn it in 10 minutes but spend a lifetime trying to master it if you ever do. That said, it is just another journey to gloriously complicate your life. Pleasant travels to you.

Here is something that should help. It was a corner rounded for me when I learned it. It is based on a 4k/8k stone set but you can do the same thing with what you have.
I wish you the best of luck sir. Feel free to ask if you need anything.Iron by iron is sharpened, And a man sharpens the face of his friend. PR 27:17

Thanked: 0Thank you for the warm welcome and info, I will certainly have a go using this method.
I've been following Lynns youtube video using the circle method with the naniwas (hence the current setup 1,5,8,12k ss), he makes it look really easy but I'm having mixed results.
I'm glad I have found this site everybody has been super friendly and helpful
