Thread: Yay I did it! First Kamisori!

Well after about a month, uncountable amounts of PMs to gssixgun, watching videos at least 20 times each, a lot of breaking things, a role of electric tape, a few crappy shaves, two suit repairs (my pant pocket caught on the chair arm, on two different suits...), and 1 chair I have thrown away because of damaging my suits... I finally honed my first kamisori from NOS to shave ready and just got done with an amazing shave (I also, now, know that my jnat is indeed good for finishing kami's). Not sure at this point it was worth all the time, and my suits, but I am sure it will pay off in the long run! Thanks Glen and everyone else for the help!

congrats !! ive been tempted to pick up a Kamasori

Ain't it cool, it honestly does get easier as you learn that pressure shift, Congrats on the success...

Good sports, kamisoris is sure fun to hone and use.
Any pics?

Here is a picture of everything I used.



I started with a BBW to set the bevel. My La Dressante Coticule with nagura slurry. And finished off with my Nakayama with tomo nagura slurry, and then just plain water back strokes.
