Let's say I was thinking about a 144p 144hz monitor, 24" or 27"?


Hmmm... who's there?

tn is gross


also all 27" 1440p monitors are going to have the same pixel pitch, or PPI or whatever you want to call it.

Yup.

Going to be cooking at Central in PerĂº for 6 months, so I decided to treat myself to the stone..

Then the airline people are the fucking worst.

@illyria

Thats some marketing, selling people 80$ rocks.
(these stones go up to 300$+ sometimes also)
I mean its not even a gemstone.

But curious what knife do you have?
Curious if you should be using a leather strop and not a whetstone.
I mean what exactly are you cutting that makes you feel you need a whetstone.

When I still had my cabinet shop, I used water stones to sharpen my chisels.
They are fantastic. Previously I had always used oil stones, and for rough sharpening they still work fine.

But for the "extreme edge" water stones have no substitute.

Go up to 6,000 grit for my kitchen knives.

One of the best restaurants in the world, so I dropped the extra cash on the fancy stones. :cry:
