Yeah not sure about this one yet. Something about it just strikes me as "not JNat;" especially the finish it leaves on the steel. I have only viewed the blades under 10x mag with a loupe so far though. The scope shots may be more telling.
I did have a shave with a blade honed on the stone, and it shaved fairly well, but not very well. I only did a touch-up on a coti-honed razor though. I will do a full bevel reset next. I was able to get BBS out of it but it only lasted about 12 hours, so not as close a shave as I normally like. Alum afterward produced maybe a 1 or 1.5/10 level sting.
