I did. Just a very light touch-up.

Light honing with a steel. No stones, I acually used an AccuSharp. For a $200 sword, it does a fair job. Followed up with 400 paper, then 1500, then the usual talcum powder.

So glad it worked out for you. Well, I guess if I had any extra tatami mats lying around, I would bust out some tameshigiri. Just paper for now. Until the zombies get here.
