Thread: diferent natural stone honing method?

I was tinkering around with the friable grit theory of honing on coticules and I realised i hadnt tred it dry yet...

so i got to slurrying with no water, not a drop!
the idea i had was to grind the coticule dust so fine that it would sort of replace the surface of the coticule and dramatically increase sharpening speed.

The only problem i have is I need to keep my beard for a job in a week, cant shave and cant wait that long to find out how it shaves a beard and i was wondering if the members would help me out and experiment with it themselves and post the results.

it also works on the jnat, after stropping the jnat edge was silently scything leg hair with ease.


I'm struggling for a word for the sharpening dust instead of slurry, shust maybe? lol anyways the shust cuts ore consistent and quicker if refreshed by the slurry stone, still without water.


Your help would be greatly appreciated

kind regards
Alex

EDIT: after making the shust and you start honing with the razor the edge will peel off excess shust.
What i try to is remove the excess from the stone so that nothing is interfering with the edge and the shust covered surface so to avoid inconsistency in the edge
