I have two diamond steels....one fine and another extra fine....my dad has various buffing compounds that you put on a cloth mop that goes on his spindle....the compounds go down very fine. My dad has wet and dry papers that go down to 7000 grit,I'll have to ask him what he uses them for....lol
My steels cost £135.ten years ago at least....my dad got them for me or they would have cost a lot lot more. The extra fine feels almost smooth ...the blades seems to cut without actually touching what I want to slice..no pressure is needed the blade weight seems all that is needed....lol My dad polishes Granite and steel looks like a mirror once it's been on his mops....lol
Aside from Photography, my other great passion inthe world is cooking. Boy, I love developing delicous culinary treats for those around me. There are so many wonderful little gadgets that makeing cooking a delight, some manual, some eletric.
The one that I use the absolute most is my egg seperator. I try to eat healthy and choose to exclude the yolk of eggs from my diet so this this is thingamajig is very helpful

Well, that depends upon the reason. If you are trying to maintain a healthy weight or lose weight and/or you have heart issues, The white is clearly the answer...
Egg white consists primarily of about 90% water into which about 10% proteins are dissolved. Unlike the yolk, which is high in lipids, egg white contains almost no fat, and carbohydrate content is less than 1%. Egg whites contain about 56% of the protein in the egg.
Also, when it comes to cooking, Yolks can change a dish yellow and add that "Yolky" flavour to it such as in puddings and cakes.
I prefer to not include Yolks in my typical diet, thanks
My 40 year old stainless steel potato masher is one of my faves. It has small holes and I use it for all kinds of things. The new plastic ones aren't worth a dime.
