    Whatever, I definitely need to buy more stuff.
    Yes it does continue in what I feel could be an entirely new direction. CBN is a radical departure from any small particle paste that I have ever used. Science is coming close to replicating what we like in J-Nats and that is the random particle size coupled with rounded particle structure. It is a very unique substance for stropping a razor......the journey continue! We will see. I am approaching with some trepidation because every time I though I have found the "holy grail" of razor sharpening something else has come along. I will say this though, after a little more than an month.... I can't feel the pea under the mattress anymore. I am "finally" almost 100% happy with my edges.

    Take Care,
    Richard
