OK bevel's here -more or less- (no tape) but that heel is still a p.i.t.a. - took it to the stones ( coticule / la lorraine / thuri / la lune) - super sharp edge from toe up to halfway the blade ...
This is where I am stuck... Should I file down the heel ? Any advise is very welcome.
Cheers
Bart
I was tryin' to figure out which is worse,ignorance or apathy...Then I realized I don't know and I don't care...

Yes I think I mentioned that before. If you honed it without addressing the heel it will sharpen at the front & not the heel so much as the stabiliser will lift the heel & create the wrong geometry for the bevel.
Both the links I gave you have instructions.bartds likes this.The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
