Thread: Hone of the Day

That, would suck.! But looks to have some decent realestate, yet. About the same as a Escher, barbers delight.

Yes, damaged but luckily still plenty of room to hone on.

Set a new bevel with my chosera 1k followed by veinette coticule on my new Max Dorner #15 in 8/8. Smooth sailing!

Playing around with one of my personal Tosuke Kamisori today
Trying a Naniwa SS 12k with a light slurry to see how close I can get to a J-nat edge feel

Basically using all the tricks I would use on a J-nat using the 12k to see how far I can push it




Hone On !!!

Refreshed my ivory Joseph Rodgers frameback on ‘big ugly’, a deep layer Nakayama koppa from Alex G., very, very, fine and very, very, ugly, lol. But the edges that it makes are beautiful.

Had the pleasure of honing these three well cared razors for a local srp member yesterday.
I used his coticule, a beautiful and very capable stone. It’s a luxury to use a wide coticule such as this one.

I had never handled a rigarazor before and was quite impressed with the fit and finish of this razor. It’s a heavy and imposing blade and the horn scales are very nicely crafted. The bevel was small and uniform, something I don’t often see on custom wedges.

For my tastes, the Le Grelot was my favourite of the three.

I can confirm that the shave with 'Le Grelot' was smooth and comfortable. A real pleasure!

thanks again Zayid
