Thanked: 995...I can hone them, but the fine edges soon corrupted. After some use or sometimes when in contact with the hone or strop. Form some glittering light on the edge. Is there too large particle size? Poor HT? Does it have only these possibilities in these steel? Overhoning or bad sharpening?
....I use srp recepies, comments and Spazola video for my HT process. But I have a lot of questions.
...I make normalizing 3 times. The first tempering cycle I put the steel to oven on room temperature. Is this ok, or I should preheat the razor?
...I have a small oven (2kW) with thermo control. When I use my oven on higher temperature(1450-1500F) the stability is between +14C and -5C from adjusted value. Is this acceptable? On the tempering temperature this fluctuation is only +/- 2C.
...I use 1 l canola oil for quenching. I'm not sure that an appropriate period of time inside the steel. I tried 5-10s and 30s periods. I tried to reach 400F before the air cool to room temperature. How can I monitor this process?
...When I use HT-foil should I deep into the oil with foil or not? Because of the short time. And during the tempering process?
I hope you can grasp my answers. Consider these and ask more questions. You are on the right path.
