Hi Folks,
Now I'm confused. I was under the impression that the Norton 220/1k are for repairing damaged razors/blades. The Norton 4k/8k is used for periodic maintenance/polishing/finishing. This is what I was lead to believe on the Web. I'm glad I joined this site. Now, I'm finding out the Nortons 4/8 shouldn't be used unless my edge is gone, so for periodic honing/maintenance, I should be using what? Coticule, DMT extra fine, Chinese 12k, or a 16k. I don't want to screw up the edge that Lynn put on my razors. I will order Lynn's DVD, in the meantime. How do I maintain a couple of Dovo's honed by Lynn? What's the best way to go. I do strop my blades. I really didn't want to get into pastes unless I have to. Thanks in Advance.:shrug:
