Well, I've been in this straight razor stuff for about a half a year now, and I know now it's going to be a lifetime endeavor. I want to purchase ( I've been saving money diligently, even with rising gas costs) a blue and yellow coticule.
1. What are the flattening/lapping procedures if different than Nortons?
2. What would be the recommended size for each if I can't afford the large 8X3? I sure like that size in my other hones though.
3. Slurry needed?
4. Any other thoughts?
Boy, my days of knife and broadhead sharpening on bastard files and Arkansas stones have sure come a long ways! Long live SRP!
