Thanked: 0C12k not restoring edge i think
I tried 50-75 laps on a C12k to refresh the edge on a razor that I think I dulled with stropping. It was professionally honed when I got it and very sharp. It pops arm hairs sometimes, depending on the hair length (won't get the short ones sometimes) and sometimes requires a little more pressure to do so (which I remember was not the case when it was shave ready).
The HHT is hit or miss, not that I really believe it anyway, but it would always pass easily when I received it...
Should I try more laps on the 12k? With or without slurry? What kind of pressure? Tape the spine? Felt w/ TI paste on it? CrOx?
Or are we looking at a need for a total bevel reset in which case I'd need to get a Norton 4/8?
Thanks
