I have never honed a razor without tape. :shrug: I've been honing for 3 years maybe.
Now I have moved onto Jnats, although im still setting the bevel with synthetics .
Do you think there is a possibility that the the tape could ware onto the jnat and alter the surface structure?
Should I set the bevel with tape and then get rid of the tape for the Jnat progression?
Or can I just get your thoughts on tape.
One thing I know is that I've always honed with 2 layers of tape unless its a full hollow then I use one layer.
If I ditch the tape now my bevels will get fatter.
Cheers
