Where to purchase honing compound?

[Soxx]

Here's a thought for you. Buy some either low-melt or ordinary paraffin wax, a jug of the abrasive of your choice and make your own. I've done it for years and I know that the guys at Edge On Up got quite good at it while developing Sharp Pad. I use it on my buffing wheels mostly. I can't say that I have enjoyed much success on hand strops or leather hones other than to shine the edges up a bit. The biggest pain is melting the wax. Most people use a double boiler but I use a heat gun. Don't even think about a microwave because it won't work. I tried. A little food color of choice marks the sticks you produce according to abrasive type, grit, abrasive ratio etc.
