I am spot on with all of the above. I would like to add that if you are going to hone your razor, please read up on lapping/flattening your stone.

The Norton 4/8k is the route for any beginner today. Unless Grandpa passed and left you with rocks, it is the first stone to have in your lineup.

Use the 8k side dry. Guide the blade across the stone...gently push it across...do not press it across. When you can do this without hearing metal scraping against stone you're there.

Clean linen times 30x and 30x to 60x on leather and you are there!

Of course there are variations, and hopefully you are aware AD so GOOD LUCK!

A life of Finery awaits!
