I found with anything like this, don't do it in the evenings with artificial light, I usually end up messing things up when I do that.

One thing I didn't notice is that it has no edge at all on it  :-\ I think it should come with at least a grind  :-\ I might try a scandi grind on it  ;)

Scandi on a hollow? That will be interesting. The no edge is probably for clumsy people who could cut themselves by just looking at it (i.e. me)
