That's a side effect of the marijuana poisoning.
Not sure if this is the best thread for this but I'm figuring people who make knives also know about sharpening them. I've made my own sharpening jig

To start with I'm putting a compound edge on my s30v leatherman blade. The cutting angle is between 36 and 38 degrees or so. I started working on it only to realise two things, first my oil stone is no where near flat and second grinding paste is no substitute for honing paste.

The question is what sort of stone should I buy? I'm looking to spend less than £40 if possible, on the stone and am thinking some kind of combination stone would be good. The other thing I'm after is recommendations on honing paste because as far as I can see they all look the same.
