I've mentioned the types of stones I use upthread - Made by King Stone an 800 and 6000 grit, I also use a stone holder - stops it from sliding around - other than that, 2 grades of leather strop for finishing, I don't use anything else. No guides, nuffink. I guess I'm lucky to have a feel for it / empathy with the material.
Considering I'm in Honor Oak it would be rude not to take you up on the very kind offer! Could you point me towards the type of stones/system you have? My current level of sharpening kit and ability is the 'drag back towards you' system and a passing familiarity with the restaurant-style sharpening steel...
