Synthetic Hones Designed For Straight Razors ?
I know very little about metallurgy and I don't know anything about chisels neither American nor Japanese. It seems that the synthetic hones are made primarily with those who sharpen tools as the target market. Anyone know what A2 is comparable to in straight razors ? Blue steel, white steel ? I guess I just wonder how optimal Shaptons, Nortons, Naniwas are for razors. I know they are very good but if they were to design hones targeting straight razors I wonder if the binder/abrasive would be any different ?
