And to top it off
, just waiting for a new set of Naniwa Chosera Pro Waterstones . The ole King stones are getting a tad tired though still a bit of meat left on them and just need to flatten them level. Have had the Kings now for over twenty years and served me well , good feedback from those stones though you do have to soak for awhile which doesnt bother me none.
Bit softer than what ive been seeing new or should i say dearer around the traps sharpening time might be a tad longer but still give a good keen edge , they load up well and can form a good slurry paste once soaked for correct time though there is an argument against forming a slurry on a stone ?? , so long as it isnt left too long i havent seen any dissadvantages to the fact .
Still like the idea of hand sharpening with waterstones and will give feedback on the new stones once ive played around with them a tad
