its harder than useing a water stone. i like that it keeps the angle but too much fitting and taking parts off.

This is the most usefull sharpening video I've seen on the internet.
I've been trying to get a good blade on knives/axes/chisels since I was a kid and never managed a really razor sharp edge. You've answered a lot of my questions here.
Just wondering though, how much does one of these sharpening kits cost and how long (in terms of knives sharpened) would you say the blocks last? Also, how do you keep them from going concave? Is the technique for an oil stone different from a water stone?

Hi John!
I just wanted to let you know that I watched the strop video, and I find you to be a humble, yet knowledgable person. I have sharpened knives ever since a young little guy, and am about to retire a bench strop I made as an early teen, (51 yrs. old now) that is far to short for what I call "The Watermelon Knife". I plan on making a 4" x 24" Bench Strop, and am possibly going to use Latigo, with some Diamond paste. Have you ever used any Diamond?
You take care John.

Backwards hat does scare me a little. Wouldn't want to meet up with this guy when he has one of his professionally sharpened knives.

The honing oil also helps to keep metal particles from being embedded in the stone them . When finished, wipe the oil from the stone.

@astranine Water as well, just saying. Also, water will be more aggressive when it comes to removing metal from your blade... adjust accordingly. Side note, once you use oil, you can't use water effectively. However, you can use oil if you would like after the stone has dried, but it is a permanent choice.
