    Default 12k naniwa ss

    Just recieved my naniwa 12k from a fellow member. Put 2 razors on just to see what it was like after i couldn't resist a test shave. Usually i would have another days growth but went for it. WOW! What a difference! I can not believe what a difference the stone made. I was able to get comfortable shaves off my 8k but this is a whole new level of comfort. Best money spent thus far. No irritation usually shaving this close together id have razor burn but not on this day. Very happy fella here. Thanks prodigy

    To be honest you really did things right, it's well known that you should learn to shave off the 8k edge to get the most out of your honing abilities, The 12k is the icing on the cake, Well done. C

    Thanks TC, i have been wanting to step up a bit and glad i did. Have been using 1/4 nortons for some where round 10 or so months and as small as they are they do work. But ill now be going to full stones asap. 8k was ok but man what a ride that 12k is. [emoji2]

    They are a nice hone. I like mine and use it for certain things. A guy can't have too many arrows in his quiver.

    But without being a skilled archer and having the right bow, they're not of much use! :-)

    I don't think so. I think they all have quivers full of rocks.
