Thanks Andrew.
It was pretty easy. A rag, a bit of Never Dull, some Maas, and a few "Q-Tips".
And a buff with a microfiber towel.

Finished pinning the Post Shear today. There's a few imperfections but i think it came out good considering i was trying some new things. I used undercollars and domed washers (Thanks Tom!)..
Outback i did notice some chipping of the CA around the washers.

So first scales with liners, first time using CA, first time using undercollars and domed washers.. also tried the 'directional pinning' method for the first time to align the blade.
Time to git honin'..

just finished 2 stra8s and a clean up on a W&B bow on Friday that I had to do a full hone on, so while the rocks were out I decided to touch up some more from the rotation yesterday
ended up doing 23 str8s all up,
4 full runs from bevel set up & 19 that were just given the 20 laps on the Nani 12k then
all given 50 laps on felt followed by 100 plus laps of English bridle
I think the shave tests might take a couple of weeks LOL
Nice job on that gem Mike. I enjoy mine quite a bit when I don't have time for a proper shave.
And that's a lot of honing in one go sir! 23. Here I thought my wrists were sore...
