And I havent even touched on the battle to consistently lap out a dish. :/ too much for me.
Of interest I honed with a coti for years and never lapped it flat.
No slurry... just used it like a barber hone wet with tap water.

The hone and my three razors abraded together and shaved just fine.

Then one fine day I discovered this place. I lapped my coti flat
and to my distress learned that the razor and hone no longer
shared a common profile.

It took months and a Norton 4k/8k combo lapping on a tile etc...
to get things back to normal shave ready.

Thus began HAD, RAD, SAD and serious latherin.
