Blade sharpening

You need to clean the stones or hones to remove metal particles from sharpening-at least that's what I've been told.

How do you do that though? Blow on it? Warm water and dish soap?

Holy shit, now that is funny

Yeah, but she read that and now I will NEVER get a cannon. Serves me right for having the computer so close to the kitchen.

These work great on old military rifle stocks that have been soaked with cosmoline too. Just don't let her see you do it........

Yep, works great on hard Arkansas stones, ceramic stones, and spoked chrome hubcaps... Just don't get caught!
