    The "Vermio" from Greece is a fine finisher, still learning it, in fact it's time to go flop a razor around on it.

    Cheers Razor floppers.

    JNATS- the choice is obvious isn't it?

    The choice is very obvious! ALL of them, depending how the mood strikes! LOL. And I must disagree on some of the statements made about Arks - pretty much any translucent or black will put a hell of an edge on a razor - but they need to be prepped/surfaced right to work well. Although yes they are hellacious slow.

    I've always finished on a Arki and then a strop board with some Rolite.I ordered a nani 12 k from SRD today so we shall see if I like that better.I have a black surgical and a white or clear Arki that I've had for 40 years and always liked.This new 12k from what I understand should be faster.
