1st time touching up an edge
A little bit of a burn this morning after shaving and I seemed to have to work harder during the shave. This evening I tried the HHT and it failed all along the blade. I got my 2nd razor in the mail today so now I have an edge to compare too. It passed the HHT with flying colors. I watched Lynn's video for about the 4th time on honing and tried my new Naniwa 12000 grit stone. I made 15 passes followed by 20 on the canvas strop and 40 on the leather. Wow pops the hairs right off.
My beard is not that heavy and I'm only 3 weeks into this so I must have rolled the edge learning to use the strop. Actually I'm still learning but improving.
Can't wait to try it tomorrow morning.
I just might be getting the hang of thisThis would be so hard to learn alone. Sure glad for the help.
