I just got my first straight razor and shaving stuff assembled from several auctions. The razor is a Boker Red Injun and when I got it, it wasn't sharp enough to even cut the hair on my arm. So I got a hone from the auction too but I have no idea what grit it is. All I can describe it as is an unmarked brown rectangle that litterally feels like glass when you rub your hand across it. From other posts I have gathered that this may be a rather high grit stone. From a few days go I have spent hours honing my razor and have gotten it up to the point where it cuts hair on my arm effortlessly, but can't pass the hair test. When I shaved with it yesterday, I found that it pulled on my beard alot like a dull disposable razor would do, so I'm guessing that it is still too dull. My question is, with the kind of stone that I have, would it be possible to get it to the 'lay the hair on the blade and it cuts it' stage of sharpness? And from the point that it cuts arm hair effortlessly but facial hair uncomfortably (it's current sharpness), how close would you say that I am to getting to shaving capacity and how many more passes would you estimate until that is possible.

Thank you.
