Thread: Trying to clarify my understanding

Coticule.be is a great source for coticule info if you've not had a look already. It may take a while to really get the best out a coticule but getting a decent shaving edge from a blade in fairly good condition ain't that hard. Mine work as touch up stones, finishers and with a little time, pressure and slurry they can do some heavier work.

I can't really comment on how they compare to a synthetic progression as I've never used one beyond the king 1k > 6k. Practically I could get along nicely with just one coticule for maintenance and my king 1k for bevel setting razors new to me.

If you don't get on with it you're not gonna lose out much selling it on.
