Thread: Suggestions for honing razors prone to microchipping?

One problem I see are the two DMT's
The other suspect is the Swaty, I am assuming this is just the extra-long Barbers hone????

Two razors that come to mind when you say chippy, The overly large Friodur and some of the Wacker's

I would never even consider using a DMT on either of these you just don't need that kind of cutting power...

One of the simplest things to do with chippy razors is to get to the higher grits faster... Every razor has a honing combo, the really good ones are pretty even, some like the lower and middle grits to get sharp and chippy ones tend to like the higher grits more...probably why you are getting there doing all the Escher work...

IIWY I would be looking at an 8k stone...
