Thanks for the good word.Ad Astra said:iBear, friend of munk, Welcome!
I am a learner, not a teacher. We all learn from those who've been around for years.
I can tell you a funny one, though. This "safe queen" post inspired me to take my HI seax and USE it (Heaven forbid!) to carve up a london broil tonite.
Soap & water made a historical battlefield weapon into a kitchen knife.
Re-oiling & re-sharpening made me realise the need to "steel" - I borrowed the chakma from a (nearby) khuk to polish the edge, and wound up with a sharper seax than I started with.
Some nice scoring in the cutting block. Hopefully, the dang thing won't rust for having been used.
But if it does, I have plenty of sandpaper.

I'm learning!
