What are you working on?

Anytime I have razor money I am keeping a sharp eye out for deals on Henckels and especially old Henckels. There are a few models that are missing from my collection.

I'm with these guys for sanding the pits off the spine, Mike. You won't be causing any harm to the geometry if you go just over until you meet the top edge of the hone wear, if you even need to go that far. Looking forward to seeing this one shine!

That's a beauty of a case, Rez. I like the lettering across the top but who can even look at that with all those great razors grabbing your eye? Really good stuff there.

Nice Rez. Ive been leaning towards putting together a 7 day set of Henckels some day. Not right away. But who knows what ill really end up with. You got a good group of them for sure.

That's a sweet little blade.
Do you hold your stone when honing, or off a flat surface.?

I typically use a flat surface but any tips would be very much appreciated!

I like to hone most knives with the stone in hand. Hopefully I can explain this for how I would hone that type of blade.
Picture a swooping X stroke with the knife, and rotating your wrist that's holding the stone clockwise to follow the edge. It takes a bit of practice, but becomes fluent after you get the hang of it. Its just hard for me to get my wrist to turn that far, with the stone sitting flat.

It makes sense to me. I'll try it tomorrow and post my results. Thanks a million!!
