"Yeah I'm trying to find the sweet spot. While the .25 micron was crazy sharp. It wasn't as comfortable coming off the natural with hakka tomo."

Just trying to help, you, with your harshness issue.

Yup, exactly the same… but different.

You have to remember the goals are completely different. You’re not shaving your face, every day with your high end knives and your vegies and meat don’t...

So, the vast majority of shaving and edge issues are directly caused by a lack of a fully set or damaged edge.

You cannot polish an edge, that does not exist. As said TPT, or just looking at it...

Your finisher may or may not be, 8-10k but what are you basing the estimation on?

Diamond paste is notoriously harsh, especially on balsa and when used with pressure.

You might have better luck...

And that is the difference in honing knives and razors. It is not just about sharp, you have to hone for comfort.

Which Nano grit sprays are you stropping on?

How did you grit rate your natural...

Welcome to the forum.

Many of us have come chasing an edge, then find there is a bit more to it...
