I know this really great fine polishing compound I use to rag wheel buff things, it's like a cross of wax and Grease they make it with.

I know I get that stuff all over me when I buff things for very long. I have a M14 bayonet that I polished and cleaned all up to presentation grade, took me hours and I was covered in that compound lol. The bayonet looks great.

The only issue I see trying to hone the bevel with that type of wheel is the bevel won't stay straight if your on it much. Really need something more ridged like a hard wheel. Maybe Graytex wheel. I got that in a 6" size, I just don't know what it will do with this incredibly hard HIC lol.

Paper Wheels with diamond compounds will do the trick, and quality ceramic knives can be made extremely sharp with these.
Already a 10 year old clip, and the white ceramic knife shown in it could also whittle one of my chest hairs from root to tip.

Has anyone tried the paper wheels with diamond compound on the HIC mule yet?!?!?
