Thread: Chosera 800x for bevel set

Specifically I'm worried about weakening the edge and causing microchipping at the finishing levels. It doesnt seem to be too much of an issue in wedges but I think the hollow grounds are bit more sensitive.

Good stuff here, I am not a seasoned pro at honing, I do some restoring and hone some of my own blades. I really enjoy my Chosera 1K for most of my leg work. I will hit my JNS 1K to clean up and ensure bevel set, then to my Naniwa SS 3,8, then 12. The 1K will take plenty of steel off a razor fairly quickly. I don't change much in my honing rituals, because they have been proven to work and I have not mastered what I do have. Some would say as soon as you think you have mastered it, then next ten kick your ass. I think each blade can make you feel like a beginner and you have to start with fresh eyes and see what the steel brings your way.
