I got a Revisor around Christmas time that was supposed to be shave ready but wasn't really. I tried the .5 diamond on felt and CroX on the scrub leather but couldn't get the razor to shave properly. The other day, I bought a Norton 4000/8000 combo stone to go with my SRD Modular Paddle that I already had and took the razor to the stone. Pyramid starting at 5 laps then to the .5 on the felt followed by the CrOx on the scrub leather then stropped and shaved. A world of difference

Now, big surprise, I am wondering about a finishing stone between the Norton and the Paddle. Naniwa 10,000 Grit ? Coticule? Escher?
