I have been able to get the razor edge on my blades with little effort. But one thing I NEVER do is come near my stones with a oil can. The oil clogs the pores in the stone and after a couple of passes it'll stop cutting. Same way with my diamond stones, leave the oil alone. After you are done with the blade, take the stone to the sink and hand wash it with a couple drops of Dawn dishwashing detergent. The pores on the stone well be open and ready for the next blade. Try it, you'll find it much better without a oilly gooey mess. .David.
