Man, this sounds like a lot of fun. If I had a Norton 4/8, I'd be in on it as I struggle to get where I want to be with honing, this challenge would force one to learn and stay focused. Really cool, can't wait to see some results and obtain the knowledge that will be brought forth.

I have selected the tools for this event.
I started on the Puma last night, and will test drive it tonight.
Here's a pic of the two razors that will be subjected to the Norton throughout January

Do you think you can afford to take one of your Filis out of rotation for an entire month? You might run short on supply!

Is that Norton cut in half or is it just the pic that gives me that idea? Originally Posted by Birnando

The pic is misleading imo, looks like a normal size to me. Originally Posted by Martin103

Thanked: 13234 Lapping Video
OK I just posted a real time 27 minutes long Brand Spanking new Norton lapping Video...
I have to apologize in advance as I couldn't get a better angle on the sink so my shoulder was in the way during a ton of it
I went ahead and posted it up anyway as there is still some good info in there and you can make out quite a bit still, plus it isn't like you can redo a "First" lapping
ps: I don't think I said "At this point in time" at all during it

ps: Seriously if you watch this whole thing, you can officially call yourself a Straight Razor Geek, because this is not the most exciting video out there
