DMT Diamond Plate Extra Extra Fine (8K) for touch ups?
Hi everyone,
Just want to thank you all for the help and knowledge I've been gaining from this site, great stuff. I see that the DMT 325 is popular among honers for lapping hones, but is anyone using the Extra Extra Fine (8K) DMT plate for touch ups?
I'm a newb, and I've sent out all my razors to a fellow SRP member for honing, so honing isn't something I'll be getting at for a while yet. However I do have a few garbage razors that are chipped and damaged beyond repair, I wouldn't mind trying my hand at them just to get the feel and technique down etc.
I know that the Norton 4/8 is a popular recommmendation but I think I'd appreciate the low maitenance of a plate.
So, who's used it? I'm that this 8K surface would likely be far too unrefined a finish for most pros here, but I'm still a newb and just need a relatively comfortable shave.
Thanks again guys!
Padraig
