I have to say I agree with you. I spent the last several hours honing the nick out with my Suehiro #1200 then followed up with a pyramid on a Norton 4/8, after a light strop I have to say it is very smooth. It passed the HHT with flying colors. Now to give it some time to see how long it holds the edge.

Also I will be starting a new post over in the workshop forum, linking back to here. As I have much work ahead of me on the rest of of the restoration.
