Jnats are way too complicated. Just get an Escher.

There's very few if any who haven't been completely satisfied with an Escher's edge. I think Jnats are potentially dangerous. How many have only one Jnat? It seems that they invoke a quest for the finest one... Originally Posted by Birnando

JNats require some home work, but can be a whole lot of fun, and to many of us, that is a big reason for staying in this sport. Originally Posted by Scipio

As something to explore for the experienced honer, it is hard to think of anything that is more fun.jeness likes this.

I had about 3 Jnats that costed maybe 1/5 the price of an Escher, and finished in the same category. Are they easy to use? No, I am still learning after maybe 40 razors on that stone, but thats part of the fun. But the shaves have been very nice from about the 5-10th try, and much more fun than just doing 30 strokes with water only on a thuri
