    I have some experience with the Zulu, my 2 cents: just to touche up the edge on that razor I would have only done 25 to 30 strokes, then stropped & shave tested. I think 130 was too many laps. The Zulu is a slow, hard stone & I have done 80 to 140 strokes coming off an 8K. Normally a touch up for my razors is 8 to 12 strokes on say my Shapton 16K, but the PHIG, Zulu & Welsh Slate take 25 to 30.

    Like Jimmy said, I would revisit the 8K, then gradually test the Zulu as you increase increments. I don't slurry the Zulu, BTW.
