    Patience is key, don't rush because you want to see it done. A blade can be ruined in short order. You will get it with patience and practice: )

    My father was an engineer. He used to tell me that sharpening a straight razor is like trying to build a ladder to the moon out of a roll of aluminum foil.

    I have a fairly nice WM Elliot that cleaned up pretty well, but this pencil thing may be just what the doctor ordered.

    This tip was worth the price of the pencil set at Hobby Lobby. I tried it last night and it worked like a charm.
