Hi,
I've experimented with Bart's One Coticule honing method, which involves setting a 2nd bevel, it works well for one of my razors.

However, I just don't like the idea of a 2nd bevel, and would prefer just to stick with a simple bevel. I can get my razor to a comfortable shave point using BBW + Slurry --> Coticle + Water. I'm looking for something that will improve keeness after BBW + Slurry, using the Coticle + Water as the finish (Coticlue + Water gives me a really smooth shave, so I'm happy keeping that as the final finish).

Any tips? I've heard of the Nakayama, Escher, and others, but not sure what would be the best at the equivalent "8K" range to improve keeness prior to Coticule+Water as a finisher.
