Hair on my hand pop up as a popcorn on the pan

Thank you very much.
I etch in cold oxide for steel and a little bit buff. Only to first shine.

mknife asked about your "mark" ~~ he means he does not see your 'name' or your 'mark' on the blade.! Most Makers have there mark on the blade.*?

[Bona]

On carbon steel I grind before and after.
