Well I finally broke down this evening and had to do a unicot on a problem blade I was having (a full hollow to boot). Tried to get the edge right for 3 nights including even taking it all the way back to my DMT 600.
Taped up the spine with 2 layers and went to the coti with watery slurry and then took it all the way to my Shapton 30K (my cheating hone). Finally I got an edge I was satisfied with!
