Phew....[emoji13] I can only imagine the stench.
All depends on how much work needs to be done. Four hours is nothing when your dodging pits N chips, and also relevant to a persons honing skills as well.
Yeah it wasn't a solid 4. I ate dinner somewhere in there and called the gf. Took about 45 to set the first bevel, 15 minuted to cuss at it, 45 to knock it back down, then about an hour to reset it. Id say 2.5 to 3 hours solid honing before i jumped off the 1k. the 4, 8 and 12k took less then an hour combined. Just that dang chip in the first bevel..
I was using a carborundrum stone to take the edge down.. that did take longer than expected.
I was also trying to set an even bevel so i was taking it a little slower.
Here's how they do it in Medinaceli, Spain. Takes an extra step out of the process.
