Hi,
I've noticed that for me, I need a little bit of slurry on my coticule to get a good touch up-- water only not enough.
When I recieved my razors that were honed by others, I needed to step back to a full slurry to get any response on a touch up-- I suspect that was due to honemeisters using paste + strop for a final step which put a slight curve on the bevel (?). Once past this, I only needed a very thin slurry to get a response.
Are any coticule users able to get a decent touch up with coticule+water only?
