Dovo Palisander and CV Heljestrand MK 31. Finished on a Thuri.
Some fun on this one
Had to go with 2 layers of tape to finally get it to hold a nice fine edge, I killed the edge 3 times at the 5k level then once again at the 10k level finally finished with my Nakayama

Hone on Gents
You get all the fun jobs Glen ;)
A little indoor honing fun to beat the heat this weekend. Isn't it a shame we can't shed our winter weight as dogs do with their fur? :)
These razors were last finished on a Naniwa SS 12k, so I wanted to touch them up on the b/g Escher to compare edges (so long as my memory remains reliable; big question mark) following gssixgun's "one stone hone" Thuringian methods. Oddly enough, they were all by chance double-jimped blades which I tend to favor:
- T-I 7/8 Oakwing half-hollow
- Nichiri Yaichi 13/16 frameback Swedish steel
- S.R. Droescher #81 11/16 full-hollow.

One more vintage Sheffield chopper Phrankie, and I'm certain you will be in violation of the government quota on British steel. ;)
I'm honing this King razor and struggling a little with an even bevel. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0368569e92.jpg
Slow week for me these are the last 4 razors finished today back out Monday.
