Thanked: 284Thanks to Wolfpack and a little show and tell
As some may know I've always liked the honing side of this hobby, whether I'm good at it or not
This site is full of helpful folks, like Euclid440 (Marty) who showed me the basics a while ago, to wolfpack34 (Mike) which has guided me on countless conversations concerning stones and honing. It was such a breakthrough to get consistency in honing and since then I have enjoyed naturals immensely, through good and bad - and a new found draw to barber hones. I like everything from the history of the hones to their individual characteristics and unlocking their codes.
Anyway, big thanks to everyone and especially Mike for his countless pointers and "secrets". I have a bunch of "wants" on the list and lately I've been able to snag some good deals. Here's a snapshot of my rock garden...
Top L to R: La Petite Blanch natural combo coticule, another fat natural coticule (fast cutter, pre finisher), Oozuku, Jyunsyou, Nakayama, naguras
Bottom L to R: Zulu grey, NOS Swaty three line, Frictionite 00, another Frictionite 00, Panama, Carborundum 103, Escher, Thuringian
Thanks for looking!I love living in the past...
