Suggestions for honing razors prone to microchipping?
I've had enough now that I need a solution.
So far my solution has been 200 circles on the escher with slurry.
I need some better ideas.
mostly this seems to be a stainless problem, but I just had it with a Japanese razor.
Not as bad, but it was happening.
I'm sure the first question will be my honing progression so I'll throw that in
DMT 600,
DMT 1200
Shapton 4K
8x2 Swaty (cuts a lot faster when it's long)
escher
I seemed to run into trouble with the Swaty, but I know it's a good stone
I don't think it was the stone, rather the steel
it wasn't overhoned, but wanted to chip like crazy
so what is the deal with microchipping?
