Default Re: Three new products. Gravers and templates

I just received the Negative Universal template from Steve and I sharpened my first graver with it. So far so good! It seems obvious to me especially on small letters such as an "s" that the heel drag is pretty much eliminated. I will admit that sharpening seemed a lot different and a bit harder than the usual way but I will probably get used to that. The 1/4" shim that Steve sent works just fine. I was hoping that maybe others have also tried it out and can share any tips or tricks they have learned with it and what they might see as the pros and cons of using this negative template? Steve? Thanks!
