    Default Which is best?

    Hi, wanted to get something to just bring a better edge to some slightly dull razors...was wondering if Belgium yellow coticle bout stone - sharpening honing stone - natural sharpening stone UK would do what i need? Or would a norton 4000/8000 be a better buy?
    Thanks

    You'll have varying opinions. I would lean toward starting out with the Norton and maybe adding the coticule down the road. Just IMHO.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I love coticules, but between these two, i'd recommend the Norton. Now, if you got hold of a coticule/BBW it would be a different matter.
    I only really use my coticule for polishing. I know they are capable of more if they have to, but i feel there are better suited alternatives.
