Thread: How long.....

Hi,

For me I've been using one piece of electric tape on the spine and bevel setting on a 320 DMT when working a blade that needs the full work up, then change the tape and work up through 1k, 4k, 8k, 12k, 15k, swaty.

The 320 DMT really makes quick work of the bevel setting.

My problem is that I spend lots and lots of time on the 1k to get to the point where I can cut my arms hairs (sometimes I don't even reach that point).
Then I move on to the 3/8 k and very often I ruin what I achieved on the 1k.
It is becoming very frustrating

Any idea or advise ?

(Sorry if it is not very clear, I'm french !)

If you find that after moving to another hone that is seems to undo the work from the previous hone, your hones may need to be lapped flat again.

The razor was purchasedon ebay and is in very good condition.
I'll try what you advised and lap the stone.
