    Default Sandpaper for lapping stones?

    Hi there!

    I was wondering if using a sandpaper -instead of a stone- in order to lap a honing stone is a proper thing to do.

    If so what do you recommend?

    Thank you.

    Yup, there is a how to which I believe is currently in the Wiki. IIRC, 220 wet/dry on a flat surface (glass/marble/etc) with plenty of water is the way to go.

    Would have probably been better to post in the hones section, by the way.
