Thread: Wilkinson Sword SE 7 Day Set

Hi everyone
I recently acquired this nice set off eBay & it has everything except for the instructions. I took one of the blades out of its holder & looked at it through an eye loupe but can't see any signs of honing. I was just wondering about honing. Is it necessary to have a piece of tape over the spine or is that only if it has spine wear. Myself, since it shows no signs of previous honing I was thinking no tape is needed to hone it. BTW, it is the older setup. I love it, I think it is a very cool set. Wish I could find a Wilkinson Sword straight!
