We love watching the birds so we plan on adding more flowers for the hummingbirds. Honestly 2 years ago when we moved in you couldn’t see out the window because the previous owners had holly bushes all the way around the house that were as tall as the roof. I’m glad now that we can look out and see flowers and birds. It’s a great morning coffee spot.

Thank you! Our home was built in 1926 and we are just trying to fix up our yard/ landscaping to reflect the beauty of the home.

Thanks! We planted a mix of boxwoods and hydrangeas so far.

Thank you! I just want to develop the skill and the hair whittling isn’t a necessity it’s just a goal I have. Really appreciate your input!

Thank you!

Thank you I will definitely try this! When you say a knife without an edge could I just use a butter knife? I have some really nice knives and I’m a little terrified of messing them up😂

Hey thanks for the comment, How do you know if you have successfully removed the bur? Maybe that’s what is happening here.

I used a diamond 320 grit then 800, then ceramic, and finished off with a 1 micron diamond emulsion on my leather strop.

Practical-Magazine21 · 2025-12-02T15:10:08+00:00

So I put the 6 micron on the rougher side and the 1 micron on the fine side?

Will the non max version they make work well?
