Touched the blade up on my old hard Ark followed by the translucent Ark. I'm liking the edges coming off these Arkansas stones. A little more practice is still needed, but I'm starting to get some decent edges with them.

I'm also very pleasantly surprised with how clean and perfect this stone is. Not a single blemish on this thing...Pure translucent beauty.
