I rehoned the W&B again last night. This time i used a slurry. Amazing smooth with a slurry. I think i will try to shave of the slurry not water next time.

a lite slurry should dail down the sharpness and increase the comfort !
Yea thats what im hopeing for. Super sharp but i do get a little irritation. So softer would be greatQuote:

I really cant believe i have used this one razor for so many shaves. LOL! Well i rehoned it again. This time slury on the DT 15 x strokes with 4 dilutions but not on water. I did the same for the LM. No water. Then i went with about 50 xstrokes on oil on the LM. 100 laps on the strop. Fantastic shave and this time no irritation. Which is really good since i only had one day of stubble. STICKY SMOOTH!!!!
sounds like that oil took the stone to a new level !
Yes i believe so. You still feel it sharp but a touch of softness. Also it removed the irritation i had gotten before. Im wondering if more stropping and use will add to that.Quote:
