So Jerry. From reading your posts once you get to the final fine belt you use the leather and compound to polish and deburr and you said if any remains a quick wipe with a wadded paper towel removes the rest. Now when I'm done my edge is very sharp with no visible wire. First time I use it I can see little glints along the edge if held in a certain angle so I believe I have an almost invisible wire still hanging out. Knife still cuts well but I'm sure that won't last as there's still a minuscule wire left. Doesn't seem to matter whether it's soft stainless or hard carbon I have the same problem. I've used cork, cardboard, towel, wood, a steel, everything I can think of and it just won't go away. Any other suggestions? Thanks
