1k to a 4k honing prob...
Hello everyone!!
I'm still new to honing and I have been able to get a decent edge out of my dmt 1k and norton 4k/8k. But alas I have never been able to get it just right. My most pressing issue at the moment is going from a 1k to my 4k. Only after a few passes on the 1k I can cut my free standing leg hair easily across the whole razor, a decent sign that it's ready to move on. But as soon as I do a few, 20 passes, on the 4k it stops cutting?! I've lapped the 4k with 600 grit wet/dry sandpaper and a straight edge.
My only solution so far is to keep trying. Any hints or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Peace
Clint
