My dad used these for woodworking, and I really like the black medium ceramic for touch ups in the kitchen. Tons of bite and lasts forever.
I have seen a few folks use the UF for razor honing, thought I'd give it a go and also start a thread to group some info.ans experiences.
These are brutally hard. I've got a weird bent for flattening stones, and have done multiple hard, translucent and black Arks. This spyderco is another animal. I'm taking breaks and even busted out a diamond plate. It'll be a sacrifice for this project in sure. 60grit SiC powder is just not enough.
Also worth noting there's no reason to buy a UF if you're going to lap it yourself. Save your money. The package inserts says they're the same stone.
