I think the two most appropriate words here are... Holy bajesus! ("great googamuga" is a close second)

buff and replace the grind lines with 600 wet & dry
Kind regards Peter

That's a hefty amount of Elbow Grease (R) Ivo & Co

However everyone will agree that the results are worth it. I am assuming you did it wet. Did you go along the length or along the width of the blade?

Looks great! I have to get my butt in gear and start doing this. I'm soooo jealous.

Is Josh's radar down? Why hasn't he been drooling over that hatchet?

Thanks Peter. I'll definitely try it with the W&B that is still waiting for me to make a nice set of scales worthy of it.
