Today I used a double sided Llyn Idwal to hone a razor for bevel setting to finishing the blade.
This will work if you have two sided stone, with one face smoothed for finishing, and I don't believe that it will be very effective if you need to remove large chips or correct the blade.
This is not a tutorial, rather than explaining the concept.
I hope that you enjoy the video, and tell me what do you think about the idea...

How was the finished edge?
So if I understand the process correctly. You have one side of the hone lapped coarsely and the other side with a fine finish?
Just like what you expect of a Llyn Ideal stones something in the area of 7-8k level, give a good Shave nothing special about it, if you ment by the question whether the edge is different using this method than honing with the same stone using a more conventional method, then the answer will be no, I haven't noticed a different when I shaved yesterday.Quote:
