Hi Everyone,
Happy Easter, and hope you all had a great weekend.
I've had a bit of time off the past few days so I took the opportunity to do some honing. What I was trying to do was find which of MY natural finishers gave the smoothest and sharpest shave from stone to face. (No stropping). The reason for no strop is because while it improves the edge it also changes the feel/edge left from a stone, IMHO, and I wanted to decide on one finisher for future re-finishing.
So, my question is, from your experience, (and the particular natural stones you have, having just come off 8k), if you had to go from hone to face which hone would you choose? (Prior to naturals I use a mani 8k). And the hones I have are: new coti; vintage coti; Escher; Thurry.
Cheers
