Thread: German Synthetic Hones... HELP!

And you're forgetting that E120 is like $170 or so...

No I did not convert it by intention because now you realized that you have a real good chance to get it cheap-issimo, hehehe

... which is not really fair for a german eyeballing a german brand....

I will wait to talk to Henckels, but I think I will be getting them. Just for ****s and giggles. If they are JIS 8000 they will probably be finer than the Norton, so...

I'm curious how they turn out.
Maybe the are the new holy grail! Nobody knows yet.

And nobody will know. Because if they are rubbish but work I won't know any better and if they are the Holy Grail and work I won't know any better. They will either work or not. I may send them to a honemeister to have them evaluated though... I'm sure people with HAD would love to use a hone for free!

You will see from the results.
If shipping wouldn't be such an issue I'd be happy to lend it.
You'll sure find someone who will give you an opinion in our neck of the woods though.

Olivia you are gonna kill me, but if something is labelled as 1k/2k (definately european) is that razor suitable?

If so the Wusthof series is suitable. They're far more expensive though, as they're only 6x2. Just saying though.
