    I need to learn this mindset and allow the razor to take its time and to take my time....honing should be enjoyable...not a hair ripping, stress bomb experience.

    Thanks!

    I use the synthetics up to 8 or 10k and that's all business , then I hit my Jnat that's when I relax and become one with the slurry

    When I decide to use Jnats, I have to be very careful not to fall asleep and mess up the edge, way too relaxing.

    Great vid.. love the music choice.

    I stopped honing while watching TV as it cheapens what should be a sensory rich experience.

    I really should get back into J-Nats. The syths so easily get the job done, but with very little enjoyment. Recall, it's about the journey, not the destination.
