Hey guys,
Just picked up a Spike vintage today and a Solingen (I think) today at the antique shop. Both are in fairly good shape but the blades are about as sharp as a butter knife. After that I order Naniwa 5k, 8k, and 12k stones. So the question I have is it necessary to strop after coming off the 12k stone?
