Beyond the coticule...or not.
Evening Gentlemen, I am an enthusiast who is finally getting the hang of putting a decent shaving edge on my straights. I am, however, trying to get to that next level of sharpness and it seems to be a bit elusive. My home honed razors are good enough for a nice shave but I am still missing that final crispness I have felt with razors others have honed for me. The razors I hone are finished on a coti. The razors I have sent away to be honed by more experienced honers seem to come back with a keener edge. I have been looking into purchasing a Naniwa 12K synthetic Super Stone. Will a 12K synthetic finish with a finer edge than a coti? Simply put, should I spend the money or do I already have what I need in my coti?
