Thanked: 2Razor passes HHT before shave but not after.
I've recently run into this problem after honing my last two razors. Before this point I have honed plenty of razors successfully and I've probably been honing my own razors for at least 7 years now. I've even honed a couple of old warped wedges which would require good honing skills to achieve a shave-ready edge. But I've suddenly run into this problem which I've never had before and I can't for the life of me figure out what I'm doing wrong as I haven't changed from my usual method that has worked previously. I'm using the dilucot method with tape on a coticule and then finishing on some natural slate. Unfortunately I don't have a loupe to inspect the edge. Has anyone else had this problem before? The only thing I can think of is maybe I need to re-lap my hones, I'm not sure if that would cause this problem but I wanted to ask here first before I take that step.
