So...ive been trying to learn to hone. I have a Yellow Coticule as a finishing stone. I had a member tell me to take my blade to the Pasted paddle... 0.5 side as a finishing. I thought that the Coticule would be the finishing. I did try the paste and it made it that much sharper.
What do you recommend as a finisher....stones or paste. If pastes were preferred, what Micron do you suggest. I think i may take the Strop I have now and put some paste on it and get a new strop.
If a Stone is preferred as a finisher....what do you recommend...or am I good with the Coticule.
