you been licking the whetstone again? lol
Is that
not the way to clean them?
In any event...sharpening newb for sure but, this is my kit
shapton: 400, 1k, 1500, 2k
three way block strop; 3k, 6k, 12k compounds
I never use the 12k but, it's there.
On a convex, I've pushed it across various wet/dry on a leather pad....
I (foolishly) let a friend baton some kindling with my convex knife - nick-aroo
- I have no problem forgiving a mistake but, for the time spent removing it - never again.
...seemed to work very well for a first attempt. Paper slides tight by that spot like the nick was never there.
I didn't screw it up so, it could be truly idiot proof....maybe convex isn't all that tough to maintain!
