When to use a finishing stone?
I'm having some serious issues with my honing skills these days.It seems like the more you learn about honing, the less you acctually know.I'm having a problem with desiding when to leave my norton 4000/8000, and continue to my 12k chinese.I'm really on deep water when trying to hone a razor thats dull.Are you guys finishing the use of the Norton with exclusivly the 8000 side, or do you use a pyramide all the way?.An excample of a honing progression from start to finish on a dull ebay razor would be greatly appriciated! Also, are you guys actually able to get a really keen edge directly from the 12k? I meen really really sharp... I'm about to slit my throat here, if only I could get my razors sharp enough...;)
HELP!
