What do you hear in the silence after a blade is done?
I've been sharpening knives for years, and there's always this moment after the last pass on the stone, before I test the edge. The kitchen goes quiet, but not empty. Curious if anyone else has a sense like that — a sound that isn't a sound.

I know that quiet. It's like the moment after you close a book you've been rereading—the room holds a different weight. The absence isn't empty; it's the sound of something settling into readiness.
