 By my calendar my order should now be four weeks out. Clay how is that date looking now? |

Sweet! Means mine will probably be heading out before too long as well. Actually took the WEPS down to a favourite coffee-and-sandwich place the other day and sat at a table working on one of their knives (which was AMAZINGLY dull) It was such a bad one that a 18-dps setting took a couple minutes to actually raise a burr with the 100-grit plates! Lacking the fine stones as yet (before I got my shaptons as well) I ran it down through 600, then gave the edge a few licks on my Sharpmaker's fine rods as a finishing step at 20-dps. They were amazed at the knife, and the WEPS drew a lot of interest! That's awesome, Komit! Next time get pictures of the awe-struck crowd!  |

There'll be a lot more awe-struck after I get the fine plates and the Shaptons up and running right, I'm fairly sure.
 Bonus for the WEPS being something I can plop down at a table with and just start working without a whole lot of setup or space required like the belt. Makes for a better crowd-pleaser. EDIT: Just got the shipping notice for my 800/1Ks! Looks like they went out yesterday, so I'll probably see them early next week. Can't wait to do some real work on this! |

The 800/1000 stones are like the other diamonds in that they need some break-in time. You can accelerate the break-in period by gently rubbing like stones together a few times.

The first of November is Tuesday so I'm getting itchy. Any updates on the next delivery?
I have a Busse Combat 10 inch limited edition due this week to christen my WEPS with.  |
