Chisel after honing
Here is the 1/8-inch chisel after honing the bevel and the back side on stones.  The edge developed a slight skew which I should be able to work out with the next sharpening.  You can see the wire edge in this photo, which I removed when I stropped the edge on leather coated with jeweler's rouge.  It is sharp enough to shave (slowly) with.
