Bevel setting problem on a fiili #10
Good day gentleman.
I brought a NOS inox 4/8 #10 Fillarmonica a while a go and I cant seem to get a decent bevel set. To my eye the spine looks good so no probs there.
I'll start by saying what Ive done. Using a lapped chosera 1k with no tape I started doing 40 circles in each direction followed by 20 x strokes. I 1st did this with no pressure 2-3 times, no luck. I then tried with slight pressure, I don't like to use too much pressure because Im worried about messing up my razors. Again no luck. I usually just spray and go but I tried soaking the chosera for 15 mins and also tried with slurry, all with no luck. Ive done countless sets but there doesn't seem to be any hone wear either. Whilst honing the water displacement is fully along the razor so I know my strokes are good but I noticed in Lynns video you can see swarf in the water though not with mine.:shrug:
Ive set a bevel on about 5 razors so am no expert but the ones I have I could easily pop hairs on my arm and leg then I progressed from there. Other than send it out Im at a loss what too do?
Many thanks for any help.
