Will do. I hear the formation of TAD.

Actually, we have so many different acquisition disorders, one could say we acquire them in a disorderly way: ADAD.

I couldn't tell much difference in the beginning myself, but now that my technique has developed to an adequate level, I can. For instance, using .5 micron diamonds after the 16K Shapton adds quite a...

A little update: I messed around a little with slurry on my Jnat that I raised with the Roszutec, right after the Shapton 16K. I didn't get an even edge, but my word did I get something fantastic!...

Coming from the 6K, I'm not surprised you got a much sharper edge :) I'm coming from 16K, so I'm not sure the shobu can add any sharpness to that. Oh well, maybe it's a good thing if I stop buying...

What do you use before the shobu?

Well that uncomplicates it.

That's a great test. If you have two identical razors, such as Gold Dollars, you could try this on yourself too. Hone them together, strop together, mix them a few times, DON'T look at the edge to...

Thanks :) I'd seen it a couple of times, but lacking naguras, could never replicate it.

Only €30? That's fantastic! The seller doesn't happen to have another one of those lying around, now, does he?



Hmm, this is interesting and could be a money saver. I have an unknown Jnat from...

Thank you all for your help, this is becoming a very interesting thread. I've just received an offer of a fellow Dutchman to try three of his stones, which I think is an excellent start. I will let...

Good point on the return shipping option. Ideally, the seller of a hone would have learnt it, honed a razor for you on that particular hone so that you can get a taste for its performance and then...

Fair point, but some sellers will let you try a Jnat before you buy! I don't know who, just quoting something I read here.



How much you want for it? :p
You're right about the uniqueness,...

And of course, still a smooth one.

I've been looking at and reading about Jnats and have had the luck of getting two of my razors honed on an Oozuku and Nakayama. This is what the honer said about...
