Henkles rust problem
Hello Hone Folks,
I have a problem with what looked like a very nice 6/8ths Henkles Zwillingswerk.
Very nice new looking blade, but!
Two sets on a hone and it rusts faster than I can get it clean! Not the honed bevel, but the hollow grind and it wants to pit badly. Perhaps that is why it went into a collection and not a daily shaver.
Was there an occasional bad batch of Henkles or do some hones cause a bad chemical reaction?
I used a 1K Chosera, a Coticule and a Thuringian. I cleaned and oiled the razor and put it away!!!!
I have never encountered that problem before.
I have soft water and that may have a lot of iron left in it but never before and not on another razor honed at the same time.
Respectfully
