OK now I am a little confused, I thought that the Coticule DID NOT make "Friable" slurry (or "Breakdown-able" for us backwoods boys :) )
From my understanding a Friable slurry would be used like my Nakayama that I leave the slurry on there as I hone, and the finish becomes more and more fine as the Nakayama slurry breaks down... I have to dilute and finally rinse on the Coticule to achieve a shaving edge... On the Nakayama I hone to almost dry on the pulverized slurry/powder
Now Lost in the Science
