Was the razor shaving before you added the tape?

If it was, adding a layer of tape will create a micro-bevel where the beauty is that you can skip a part of the honing progression without needing to reset the bevel or drop down to a bevel setter.

Btdubs, I also have a Kanayama that doesn't mention the name, but it was rebranded for the "German" market or something, amazing strops.
