Wow! An axeman stone for 2 bucks....WITH a strop! :cool:
Got these 3 done tonight. Still got a couple more in the needs honed drawer, maybe tomorrow.
The imperial on the left was finished on my Jnat. A test to see if I got this stone figured out yet. I don't think so. The other two finished on the 20K. Its been a fun night, sucking on beers, listening to Ozzy's Bone Yard, honing razors and everyone in bed leaving me alone! Test shave tomorrow with three days growth. Should be a nice improvement. Hey, It's my weekend. What the hell!

Puma 19, a larger size at 15/16 and lighter colored Escher 6x2-3/8 with 2 German strops, a Biber and Dovo.Keeping a keen edge with these is pretty easy going.All German stuff today.
Honed up this T.I Spartacus just.
1k bevel set then onto the Naguras.
It's an honour to hone on such a stone, very fast and fine.
I can tell the edge is amazing.
Cheers, happy honing :)

Couple of touch ups on Super Stone 12k followed by yellow/green Thuringian
Got these honed this evening. Will test them out thru-out the week. The one on the right just needed a touch-up.

Crown razor, full Nagura progression and finished on Jnat with light tomo slurry. Unknown mine, very light green color. Stone is hard, not super hard and it has a wonderful strop like draw. Allegedly from an old retired barber.
The shave just put a big smile on my face :)
