Thanked: 96Hone sequence
I just got a Arkansas Black from Dan's and found it to be flat. I burnished it and took it out for a lap with a razor I bought on eBay. I had to set the bevel with my Naniwa 1k, the Naniwa 5k, Jnat, Naniwa 12k, Suehiro 20k, Arkansas Black, Chromium oxide paddle and my English leather paddle strop. I wasn't sure what hones to use so I tried them all. Worked pretty good. Great edge and will shave with the razor tomorrow. Where does the Arkansas Black usually go in the sequence? I won't need all the above now that the bevel is set. To refresh I would usually use my 12k & 20k or just the 20 k and chromium oxide. Now that I have the Arkansas, I am curious to see what can be omitted?
