I did this with a finish on the coticule with the kutter and a finish on the chinese with the tadross, and it still wasn't sharp enough to shave. It pops hair but doesn't cut close enough. I am quite...

Both my Tadross and Kutter are now unshavable, both only popping hairs. I am not sure if it something in my honing technique or not. I've listed the stones I have and go through a progression of...
