My <em>only</em> objection to mechanical methods is that they're... mechanical.<br>
<br>
Well, that and there's a tendency for mech to leave mech marks.<br>
<br>
That, said both work to dull the steel. I suppose you coudl use mech, as its faster then follow up with a hand method to "erase" mech marks.<br>
<br>
Another thing to keep handy is a lightly oiled cloth to wipe the steel as you go.. whatever method you employ to dull the steel.<br>
