Am I mistaken in thinking that these ceramics should be quite a bit harder than steel? I just picked one of mine up and used a swiss army knife to easily shave a small nick off the end of the 1600. Tried the same thing with my sharpmaker stones (on the corner) and all it did was add a new nick to my blade.
That is truly awesome. April 28th. I suppose, I’ve only been waiting for half a year, why not fulfill the recent orders, offends fewer customers that way.
