In a hurry? Spyder-slurry!
I got bored yesterday, so I tried honing with a little slurry on my spyderco UF;
I created it with a little DMT-like diamond pocket hone (about1"x3"), just like you would with a regular slurry stone.
WOW! Other than a brand new DMT, or sandpaper, I have never seen anything cut so fast. When I get off work today, I will have to post some pics of all the steel that got blasted off that razor. In 10-15 passes it knocked off ALL the marks from the DMT 8K, unreal... Darn near a mirror polish.
After about 10 passes on a light slurry, I made about 20-30 passes water-only to try and clean up the edge afterwards. I haven't test shaved yet, or experimented with it on more than 2 razors yet, but it does open up another use for the UF. And it had much better feedback too, almost like my coticule really!
I have a few razors that refuse to play nice with me, so I may test them on the Fine or Medium with slurry just to see what happens.
