Thread: Shaving off 8K

Figued it out I think. I've been honing away for 2 hours on 1K on the same piece of tape.

This is causing my bevel to get wider and not staying in contact with the edge.
I know better than this. Sorry all.
As far as MY X stroke. Its done with the heal leading and a bit of a swoop at the end to make the toe catch up just a bit. More of a straight down the stone then a little off the edge. I'd do more standard X stroke but this razor has a bit of a stabilizer/shoulder/little sharp piece. Ha. So that the heal is just on the stone. If I go in an X then the heal is only on the stone for for very little time.

Hope that made sense.
