    Touched up my Revisor last night. Progression was:

    Norton 4k
    Norton 8k
    Nakayama kiita w/ meijiro slurry
    Nakayama kiita w/ water only

    Didn't test shave yet because I want to let my recent cut heal...

    No honzan/dmt slurry from the Kiita stone as a finish?

    Honed an Issard 669 frameback, a W&B 6/8 half hollow square point, a W&B 5/8 wedge barber's notch, and two orphans, one half hollow and one wedge.

    Progression is Naniwa 1k, 3k, chinese guanxi stones 5k and 8k, a c12k followed by a stropping. Also got a 600 grit that I only pull out if they are pancake flat and need a lot of metal removed to get the edge started - one of the W&B's needed an appointment with it.

    I have been trying out the Henckels 1-3-8 (TY Jeffus) set lately, nice compact set of stones that are basically different color Naniwa SS's...
    Then on to my CH12k for a finisher...

    These went 15 on CeOx then linen and leather and onto a smooth shave this morning...

    I haven't honed any of my own razors in quite a while and don't feel right about posting razors I honed for others w/o their permission. There hasn't been any posts to this thread in a month so I thought I would bump it to see who's been up to what. So, what have you honed recently and what hones did you use? Have you obtained any new hones and what do you think of their performance? Inquiring minds want to know.

    I honed my W&B Celebrated lastnight. Naniwa 1K, Taidea 5K & 8K, Naniwa 12K and yes, 25 X strokes on "The People's Hone." It maybe overkill but it really works for me. Feo, CrOx and 100 webbed cotton/100 English Bridle.

    Naniwa SS 5k and 8k
    Thurry and Asagi for finishers
