So apparently, Superman in issue 900 of Action Comics decided to go to the UN and renounce his US citizenship! WTH? Truth, Justice, and the sellout.

I have one of the smiths diamond hones (with the "Dots"). Course grit. Like they said, get the 8 inch MINIMUM! length diamond hones. Personally I don't think it makes any difference if he hone has the "Dots" or not. I have not really been able to tell any difference. And WHEN ABLE, always clean your hone off after use. With diamond you can do this pretty good with nothing more than water and a scrub brush or a cloth.
I would say the course and fine. Personally I do not find the ExtraFine as a necessary stone. Yeah it might be nice to have but I do not like a highly polished edge as I find that FOR ME the course diamond/ceramic puts the toothy kind of edge I like and don't find I need anything more "Polished".
Just my 15 cents worth.

Just my 15 cents worth. Thanks skunk hunter. Hey I've loked all over this forum and rat chat for an FAQ on Avatars guidelines. Any suggestions. Thanks
