    20 laps slurried on the thuri, diluting every 5 laps, finishing with 20 laps on water. BAM ,killer edge.

    These Gottas almost hone themselves.

    The scales are awesome, balances perfectly and nice solid weight and feel, couldn't be happier.

    Glad you like it

    These are extremly fun to hone, there's a reason that my goto razor for testing hones is the Gotta. Like you say they almost hone themselves (And takes a great edge)

    Fantastic job on those scales, Zephyr. I love that blade, too; looks to be a great shaver!

    Hehe, best of luck. IMHO, the Gottas are superb and a sleeper brand, they are super hollow and very similar to Filarmonica EPBD's.
