Thread: Honing Japanese razor's Just how??

I was wondering about the one sided bevel of the fix blade Japanese razors, just how are they honed and to that point, how are they also stroped properly?? I don't have one but they do facinate me by the very difference's to the more familiar double beveled, folding jobs MOST of us use.

I tried to use the "Search" function at the top of the SRP toolbar but didn't get any useful hits.
Thanks for any info you might give, tinkersd or SRP.

This thread should be helpful. Post #3 in particular has quite a bit of information.

Also I am setting up to do a vid on honing a Kamisori tonight if all goes as planned I will have it up and running sometime tomorrow...

I promise to explain everything in clear English,,

The video sounds great!! I however have dial-up internet, is I'll have to wait until you post the info in a Thread on the forums.

Thank you, good to know.

It is up I hope you can watch it... I didn't do it in HD or anything so it might work for you...
