    If the bevel has been rounded due to the paste/strop, it needs to be reset-- you'll need something closer to the 1000-1500 grit to do that. If you are able to hone your other razors with the 4K/8K, then you should have no problem resetting the bevel with the 1k. You *must* have a perfectly formed, flat bevel before the 4K/8K with standard strokes will do any good... I make sure the razor shaves arm hair before moving up (I use coticules, but same principle applies....).

    Happy honing,
    Chief
