    Default Shapton 16K and GDLP UNBOXING!

    In the grandest tradition of geeking out over new toys, I give you the unboxing of a fast becoming celebrated set of honing gear. Whoever designed the packaging on these things did a great job. They were a sheer pleasure to unbox and they have been performing incredibly well.

    PICS:

    Pretty boxes!

    Congrats on the purchase. Without a doubt, my favorite line of hones.

    Shapton's stones sure do look classy. Personally, I really like the look and smell of my Swaty. Every time I get her out, she makes me hungry; I think she reminds me of a chocolate bar.

    You have made a choice with which I agree. I tossed the boxes right after I designed and built this:
