And I thought I was the only one that could hone, and eat, at the same time.

I've been learning my new Nakayama Asagi that I got complete with Asano-stamped Mikawa nagura (Botan, Tenjou, Mejiro and Koma). I'm still dialing in the complete progression, but have gotten some ultra-smooth edges that started out close to shave ready. I put them through the Mejiro, Koma and Tomo slurries to finish, so sort of "learning them backwards" (which is really how many of us started learning synthetics in the beginning anyway) depending on the needs of each blade. I should probably take the advice Keith aka Tomonagura from the Etsy shop I bought them from and learn them from the Botan upwards, shave-testing after each step. I'm sure I'll do that once I get a blade that needs more work. I just do everything backwards lol!

Hone of the day, using a sandstone owned by my great-grandfather, who worked as carpenter (among several jobs he performed during his life).
