But what you describe, proper or not, means that every time you hone/sharpen-the entire side of the bevel is done. Izzat how it is done? Why?
For the original topic, I made leather strop of Tormek paste, and it worked great.
However, I was very disappointed in the DMT plates in the picture, I rubbed off all the diamonds across the end...the black (60u?) one.
That DMT plate is about 10 years old, but has not seen much use.
I looked at some literature, thinking seeing "Lifetime Guarantee" would be nice to see (True); but no such guarantee is seen.
