This line made me wonder: do you go by looks to decide whether a refresh is necessary? I was absent here for a bit, so I probably missed it, but if not, have people here talked to you about the packing peanut test?

I don’t usually look at the edge to decide on a refresh. Last time I had put a new edge on it with new stones but it didn’t erase all the old scratches so I redid it. I think they were diamond scratches still left from when I had restored the blade. I do know about the packing peanuts but I don’t have them. I usually try the hanging hair test.
