Product Information

Another voice for the double stuff. I also have the new DC3 although I am disappointed with the fine stone I do find that the diamond is good for the big dinks in my blade. but I'd still recommend polishing the pool ball or using a replacement ball as it makes them a lot smoother. Because of this (after giving away my old DC4) I’ve switched to a Spyderco “Double Stuff”. I highly recommend it.

The finer side of these stones are soft and prone to damage of the surface as well as the corners being chipped off. You, therefore, also need to provide some sort of protective case. A small food storage box works well. We’ve also found surplus US military decontamination kit containers (as shown in the photo above) are the perfect size to house one of these stones.

Gränsfors Bruk who have for many years produced these stones from natural materials, now produce a synthetic version of the stone too. I use the original version, which is made of natural stone from Gotland. I’ve owned and used it for many years and it will probably outlast me. Gransfors Bruks Original Axestone and protective case. Photo: Paul Kirtley I bought a little pot of straight AlOx from a carving tool vendor. It's white. Blue will be some added color coding. It's an abrasive. However the scratches are so fine, we can't see them so the surface looks smooth and polished. Thanks for the response mate. I have found that the “New” DC does need some working in to get that razor edge but even when using new if you do a good bit of work with a strop I have been able to get my scandi grind hair shaving sharp. My wife always complains cause I have random patches of hair missing on my arm!! I just say its woodsmans alopecia…. It may be that someone normally has a hard, constipated, pellet type poo or maybe they are always on the softer side, but if that is what is normal for them and they have been living with that for years then it is unlikely to represent something like bowel cancer.

Conclusion

However if you've noticed your poo turning a bluish-purple colour it could be a rare condition called porphyria. Our favourite polishing compound - fresh Smurf Poo is made of high quality abrasive powders in a soft paste form.

It’s a very different profile to the F1 though, which is a fine knife. My view, though, is that a good part of the edge retention comes from the 3G powder steel, which holds an edge very well.

For info, many things, pastes and waxes included are mixed with hydrocarbons which evaporate and the whole lot dries out, without them being compatible with water, vinegar, or oil. Perhaps it's just harder to design an ergonomic pointing device - all kinds of complex curves and angles.
