Thanked: 22I haven't tried using electrical tape yet. It was only the first time I used only the 8000 stone to freshen the edge. After I found I could'nt shave with it, I went down to the 4000 and back to the 8000 but still didn't get a good edge. On one of my attempts, I swore up and down that I got a good edge but after the first few passes on my cheek it got dull. With the wider width, is it possible to have too great a bevel that dulls quickly? I'm wondering if the tape will lessen the bevel and hold a better edge.
