 Would anyone happen to know if either gouging cane wet or dry has an advantage of maintaining blade sharpness longer? It feels like I have to try harder to gouger dry but that it takes longer to gouge wet.
 
 I am not as worried about the differances on the cane just on the blade. I have a great gouge right now and would like it to last as long as possible.
 
 I could explain this to myself either way but would really like to hear from someone that has tested both options and seen the pros and cons.
