    Hey Kyle beautiful Bowie, the lapis is stunning. Hey I’m a knife maker from Canada and a lapidary artist. In my Experience working with many different Gemstones the soft backed diamond nova wheels work amazing for achieving a high gloss polish. The wheels can run up to 14,000 grit and then a light buff with cerium oxide on a leather pad works amazing. Oh the Damascus on that blade is fantastic 😮
