I am sure there will be a lot of unknown stones to be IDed and theese could help with atleast setting comparable grit from scratch marks.

I'll bring a good camera, but I don't have a tripod.

Stu has shaptons and Naniwas, I have a King 800/4K and a Naniwa 3/8K combo. I'm sure that quite a few of us have synthetics.

I'm going to bring a 1/3/8/12k set of Naniwas and a 1/4/8/16k set of Shaptons.

Anyone got some Nortons...?

If anyone has razors they want to hone they are more than welcome to use my stones, or I can walk you through the honing if you want to learn or do it for you if you dont want to. As you like!

I'm going to bring a 30x eye loupe as well, but maybe I'll invest in a USB scope and bring my laptop along. That could be kinda cool...! Close up edge inspections and stuff.

Please bring any kit you think people would be interested to see/try out!

I have a full set of choceras (well not the 600 or 800 but all the rest).

Claude

I was about 1 set as then you can compare scratches for simmilar patterns. I only have Cocera 1000 and SS 10000 as normaly I only use different naturals.

Nice one. sounds sounds like a damn good idea. I've been using this site now for a good while and have found some really useful info on it. I've been hoping for a get together in London at some point for some demos and as it's in one of the best shaving shops in the city...count me in!!

ill be searcing for tickets if you´ll have me

We'd be glad to have you with us Janivar! Please do come along, the more people we have there, the better it will be..!

And the more beer we can drink afterwards!

Don't thank me mate, I had already organised to send Stu a strop before knowing of this event. I was just dropping him a hint to take it with him for others to try. I hope you like it anyway mate. I really do wish I could be there though.


Mick

No worries Mick, the roo strop will definately be coming with me to the Razorcon, so all those who want to try it out can do so..!

I'll charge by the stroke and send you the money afterwards..! Hehe!
