Thread: Hone of the Day

Geezer once traded me a hone lot for this coticule. After a long search it has been identified as La Nouvelle Vein.

I set the bevel on a 3k shapton. Progressed to bbw with slurry. Flipped it over and honed coticule with water until I was finished. This razor is a pain in the butt to hone. Warped at the toe, missing heel due to its factory grind (ground into the heel by 1/8") so it was removed.

Hone wear is unsightly and it costs $5...

But it shaves very well.. and I have no remorse for what I put it through. That's a win in my books.
