Thread: Barber hones characteristics

This is Magic NORTON razor hone. i have tested it and i couldn't believe my eyes what i saw.
As you know this small darn stone is very very expensive. My thought was is it worth to spend so much money on this small stone?
Results are.
used on dull razor result none
used blade sharpened with coticule, Nakayama ,Escher.
all 3 above razor were shave ready and was shaving great.
i did only 4 strokes on each.
Every single of them get sharper edge. i mean edge was so sharp i just couldn't believe it. i was thinking you cannot get sharper edge then above 3 stones but actually you can.
Now if you do have HAD serious one then go head own one if not just forget about this stone.

i haven't shave test none of the above blade after norton and don't know how they will shave. before all3 blades were shaving very smooth.
hope will this helps you guys
