I haven't tried mine with Cr0 yet. I might do that next, but with the secondary bevel I created, it's a little tricky.

Just to report back on the razor. I've been able to achieve a pretty nice edge using Bart's unicot method, starting with one layer of tape for the bevel and adding 2 more for the second step. The...

Hey guys,

Do you guys have any suggestions as to how to approach honing such a beast? My weapon of choice is a coticule. I'm thinking that since the razor is so hard...maybe I should spend more...
