Thankyou for your offer.(respectfully decline )
I understand that using the aloxite for approx 300 strokes was excessive(even using lather).
The razor is still sharp,and i can still shave my whole face,i have no problen doing that.I know there is no where that says to use that amount of strokes,as i said i have only resently got the hone,my problem was that although i could and still can shave with my razor i felt that the edge still needed to have a finer/sharper edge to stop the pulling of hairs not just round my chin but on my cheeks etc.
I had originally only stropped carefully onleather before and after shaving but felt that the edge was not shaving its best.
only then did i use the pasted strop and then the aloxite.
I am open to all constructive critisism,its as i say i took care to do the stropping light touch,blade only pressure even strokes etc,these are things that i consider i was doing correct. The strokes on the hone i tried after,doing things on the leather and the pasted strop didnt bring the required results.
I thank everyone who has taken the time to write and i am sure that i will find a formula with what i have at my fingertips to eventully get the required result.
As they say practice makes perfect.
respectfully clock.
p.s. never laughed so much when you thought i was sensitive !!!
Just good manners and polite.
