Whats your current honing setup?
Just curious as to what people are using these days
Just curious as to what people are using, im settled with what I have which is more than most but less than some.
I dont tend to stick with all synthetics or all naturals (well as all natural as you can go bevel setting options are limited imho in that area)
I dont even stick with one range let alone one brand when it come to synthetics.
Bevel setting is
Chosera 1k (work DMT when needed)
4k is the Naniwa Hayabusa 4k or the Dalmore blue.
If im struggling with a certain razor I use both
8k is covered for me with the Naniwa snow white or the Naniwa Fuji on occasion I do crack out the Norton 8k and sometimes I bridge the 4k-8k gap with my tam O Shanter usually when I have a chippy razor either of my Hart razors spring to mind
the next step for me is either a very fine slate hone (im assuming its slate I cant say for sure I know its not a Thuri but its past an 8k imho. before going to another step
But usually its the SG10 or the Naniwa 12k or both
Final is the SG20k or Charnley forest.
If Im finishing on either of my Cotis I either do the 8k phase or skip it it depends on how the razor is honing up imho.
I have other stones some ive hardly used but I will give them a proper try out at some pointLast edited by alpla444; 04-27-2020 at 07:56 PM.
