    And that is exactly why we don't recommend the cut down PHIGS for beginners.
    The stone itself may not be an issue if you score a good one but the Barber Hone size offers a few hundred chances of a mis-cued stroke.

    I have 1/4 nortons from Larry and I can attest to what others are saying buy the full size stone. I have not used the PHIG so I can not chime in on the grit rating but a tiny stone like those are not the most fun to use unless you have a mini razor . The 1/4 stones are what I could afford at the time and I still use them with success but looking back I wish I would have just got full size stones.

    I guess I skipped a page I should have read more carefully, my last post is pretty much null and void. Glad this stone is working for you enjoy and shave on sir
