Thread: Coticule

Honing with this bad boy now :-) just had an excellent shave super smooth and super close.

Congrats. I quite like the edges that coticules produce, very smooth indeed. Nice looking stone too

Yep, it's definitely my personal fave. Can't wait for one of my blades to get dull so I can use it again lol

That is a nice looking Coticule. Looks like select grade to me.

I believe it's a La Veinette. Really impressed with how versatile it is, also I did think that the width would be an issue but I can honestly say it just feels right, and the resulting edge is fantastic.

I love honing on a Coti. I have a 6x2 as well; it's a great size.

Hey Gary, yep certainly a coincidence us living so close and same profession :-) as I said this stone is unbelievable superior. Won't be going back to the synthetics, not after such brilliant results. Thanks

Oh man I can't wait till my 6x2 select grade gets here!! I ordered it about a week ago & am very excited for it's arrival!!

To say its the first time you used a coticule you got briliant results ..that stone will easily keep your three razors going... I reckon the stellas helped out getting you there ..
