Nagura Progression going backwards?
Just wanted to pose a question for jnat users-
Has anyone noticed razors going backwards when using a seemingly finer nagura? By backwards I mean by whatever test you use (HHT, etc).
For me, I can start with botan, get nice HHT with mejiro, then after koma, it seems like my HHT is considerably worse. I haven't done enough testing yet to see if that means anything (like how it shaves). Just wanted to see if anyone else has noticed the same thing. Could my koma actually be taking me backwards? It actually feels courser on the stone. Does a nagura have to be "broken in"?
