I'm sure it would work as well as any abrasive! "Here's that same piece of paper" Seems odd that the very 'same piece of paper' didn't have a previous cut or tear in it when it was used the second time. But it is a good idea though. |

Oh, the cut was probably on the other side. It would have been more impressive if he'd held the knife about four inches from his fingers when he cut the paper. I might try it one day. |

It is a very old trick. Yeah, but he didn't put his video on You Tube! |

Especially if you hit the bone. -- No mater how liberally you try to ignore rationality and reality, reality always wins in the end. |

Ceramic cup works like a good steel. Eventually does need a stone, but most people use the sharpener too much. And the steel not enough. Straightens out the rolled edge. |
