How low do you go with this King 8k nagura? I purchased it btw.

As far as cleaning goes, until the surface is cleared of swarf. For sharpening, I don't have that much experience with razors, but it's 8k slurry so you aren't going to set anything back. Try it out and let us know what you think!

It will arrive on Sunday, I am thinking Mon or Tue I will be able to try it out! With my Shapton glass I will know right away if there is a difference. I will report...
