Thanked: 0Retouching the edge
Hello Guys:
I want to give a little retouch to my blade edge, so the question is can i use the pyramid method to do this? starting at what point?
I only have the Norton 4/8 k and no finer grit.
Thanks for your advice

That depends upon what shape the edge is in. You can start just with the 8K, using X strokes and see what comes of it and do your diagnosing from there.

Thanked: 0I have had only two shaves with that razor and is ok just thinking in retouch because maybe the angle i used or the pass ATG made feel like if it wasnt too sharp, i know i have job to do with my angle and technique in general but i want to give a little retouch to the edge just to meke me fell more comfortable.

XE3VW,
I'd stick with the 8K. If that doesn't work, then you go to the 4k for a mild bevel re-set.
