Thread: Getting the Most out of an Escher

To tell you the truth I've pretty much hung up my natural stones (a coticule and an Escher and a Thuringian) and use the Super Stone and a 20K Gokumyo as my finishers.

It's not that my naturals were bad or anything. I have a blue/green Escher and it works great but it's more barber stone size and can be tedious to use. Pretty much it was to refine the edge to the final degree and it gave a uniquely smooth edge. If the razor didn't shave pretty darn good before the Escher it simply wasn't Escher material yet.

The synthetics are big and very consistent and give a great edge and that's the story.
