Hype is the worst enemy to our SR community. Jnat honing

[mainaman]

Everyone knows that certain blades are just amazing like the Filarmonicas, the Bartmann and Le Grelot. But there are so many other razors that i have traded that shave as well for a fraction of the cost.
First, vintage razors are best and I think that we are all in agreement. Has anyone ever used a Gortz- probably not. I simply could not believe how well it shaved. Recently used a T Hessen Bruch 6/8 that blew my socks off!

I firmly believe that jnats are the best final finishers. The evidence is in the slurry. I can finish with my Belgian yellow after no more slurry is given off, then I use any of my jnats with a small amount of slurry and the mixture turns instantly black. Coticules are great but if there is empirical evidence that a jnat keeps cutting then something has not been finished.

are you ona mission or something?

Then I use my TM linen to debur,

unless you meant to burnish the edge, you just disqualified yourself here. Burr on a straight razor is an admirable achievement, and especially after a Jnat.
