This was good for me because, at the time, I was honing by rote and would take edges past 8k that weren't really ready to go there, and I'd be trying to figure out where I was going wrong. I don't know if that is where you are but it is amazing how good an 8k shave can be.
The guys that give credit where due and talk about when they weren't getting it right are really helpful to all of us that don't think we know it all. I have alot of respect for this - and gratitude. Most of what I think I've learned, I owe to Jimmy & Glen & a great Coti method from Lynn. 'Can't thank them enough.
