    Default Video: Coticlue Speed Test

    The Contestants:

    1. Vintage Barber Hone: the shaves of this one are just okay, maybe I couldn't unlock it secrets, anyway the stone is somewhat fast with water.

    3. A very hard hybrid coticule: Newcomer harder than my Ozuku almost as hard as an Arkansas Translucent, haven’t tested it yet.

    4. La Veinette coticule: very fast, soft and fine I estimate it grit to be 10k+

    5. Les Latneuses on one side (or maybe not) and Hybrid on the other: Nice stone that leave a very high polished edge, I shaved off one of those sides but can’t recall which one, it was a sweet shave.

    The Test:
    Nothing too scientific, just grabbed a Carbon Steel Mora classic No.3 and started sharpening while counting to 20 in my head and trying to maintain the same pressure.



    Conclusion:

    Coticlues are very fast stones


    Winner:

    4. La Veinette
