ATG: Better not to hesitate?
Hi there, I have been using a straight for a few weeks now, mainly on weekends, and have found, I guess like all newbies, that going ATG was a "problem". At first I had the feeling that it was not happening, as blade seemed to be "stucked" (sharpness should not be an issue, it happens with a Solingen honed by Martin from Rasurpur, who has a great reputation, and also with a Friodur), but just recently I have noticed that even if I find some resistance I just need to continue, having some faith and....voilá!! It does scare a little, and sometimes is not enough, as the angle simply does not work, guess is just a matter of self-confidence combined with better technique....
Am I alone on this?:confused:
Regards
Carlos
