Iron Sharpening Finish

Try the wet dry 1000 and 2000 grit. A stunning differenceand no more trouble than the other papers. The fine grit papers seem to last alot longer and that pleases the skinflint in me. Less fussing about with the spray adhesive (that stuff is inconvenient and I just read somewhere about what a nasty health hazard it is, made sense to pop on a mask and do it in a far corner or outside).
The results made me buy a lee valley waterstone and honing jig. I just bought their green honing compound and freehanded a chisel on some mdf, wow.

Can the honing compound be used on glass ith the honing jig? I'm a bit leery of drubbing the edge on leather.
