we had better be careful here with all of these point names, I can just feel someone getting ready to type up a rant calling someone a charlatan.

Keep it up Dave, and you will be hanging out under the dingleberry tree with Gugi and Me

I am trying to get the "Point", but I don't.

LOL! One of the subtleties of using a straight is control of pressure from the toe to the heel. As you have found out when you lean on the toe it is no big deal with a round point but reminds you when you are using a spike. It is not just the speed it is the uneven pressure.

You are doing very well for 4 months.

Take Care,
Richard

Danbrew, that's one HOT TI!!! BTW, that's a spanish point...The straight razor - Straight Razor Place Wiki

I wouldn't call that a Spanish point. It closer to a barber's notch than anything else, though the hollow is shallower and wider than the typical notch.
