Yep, nothing better than getting great shaves off of your own edges. Now you can really work on tweaking that 8k Norton edge before falling down the rabbit hole of more finishing stones.
For instance, when I think I'm done on the 8k, I like to add a drop of dish soap, then do about 10-12 more perfect, ultralight laps on soapy water. That and a vigorous stropping session is all you need.
