2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

I've been needing to get something, but I didn't know there was a big difference between different sharpening stones, techniques, ect

To carve spammers into tiny, quivering bits, I prefer to use a dull knife... it's more fun that way.

.....I do however shave with my superb (best in the word) Sheffield Silver steel "cutthroat"..

A true art form to get a superb shaving edge.....

My  10,000 grit Japanese synthetic waterstone is rubbed with a smal stone to form a slurry with which to produce the edge....finishing off on the canvas side of my strop which is impregnated with superfine carborundum.....

......will ping a hanging hair with a touch............spammers ba**s a delight ...commoner ;)
