    I honed this one on the DMT1200, BBW, Coticule, Thuri, and Chrome Oxide Balsa strop. It was honestly the fastest, easiest hone job I've done so far.
    Result: AWESOME. Man this thing shaved nice. Sharp and smooth. 3 passes and BBS. Happy days.
    Have a great week fellas

    Thank you Bill!

    Awesome pictures this far!! And Max your blade looks mean! Looks a little like some of the Swedes in the blade design, at the front/tip area. My Helje 9 1/2 comes to mind, a stiff 1/2 hallowish blade.
