    Nice, Frank. TBH, I think you must rotate them from your end before attaching them.
    Smartphone pics come out sideways a lot.
    Upside down? Rotate once again!

    I rest my case.

    Working on some Russian Stain less steel. Slow and effective for moving to final finisher stone in progression.... have fun.

    Default 4 Natural Beauties

    These are the four beautiful woman keeping me up late at night trying to figure them out. My obsession is starting to take a toll on other area of my life. Bags under my eyes and exhausted all the time but I am loving every minute of it. I stayed up late honing four razors with these. 3 from eBay and full bevel sets.

    From left to right:

    A "no name" stone stamped Washita. It replaced my labeled "Lily White" Washita as the no name is a serious metal hog compared to the lily white. Very fast.

    A Soft Arkansas

    A Hard Arkansas

    A vintage Translucent Arkansas

    Using magnification and every test I have calibrated to get a consistent system down. like I said, loving every minute of it.

    What a curse be a dull razor; what a prideful comfort a sharp one
