Yeah I hit it a few times, but I get off it asap! Thank you

Here is a co workers modern production Hart 7/8 razor I honed up last night! It had a V shape to the blades edge not a smile, where 1" of the toe of the blade on one side did not meet the stone with...

Okay, so last night I shaved with the razor in question! Also I decided to use the advice given to me by BobH to do some spine leading strokes and finish with edge leading strokes to see if that...

Got it, will do! Thank you

I will try that, when you do spine leading strokes would you recommend the same light pressure and torque as I do with edge leading strokes?

I hear and agree!!! The edge is not foil it is like fabrics, specs. Then I gently see the linen strop and it is gone?

That Shapton glass comment made me laugh with my similar experiences! Do you find the edge of Harts right off the stone has bits of debris or faint foil like excess steel that is easily removed with...

When you do get that one Hart's bevel to come together is it an optimum bevel set or is it close enough? I am thinking the very edge of the older Hart's are like two north magnets they just wont...

Got it! That is solid info to write down. I will post when I shave with it

The edge has turned out much keener than before, however the shave test will be the real test. Do some razors max out, meaning the razors steel and geometry will only provide a max level of keenness...

I was using that stroke to show the water sliding up the blade. I do a pretty true X stroke when off camera lol! Thank you

3 layers of tape I have already tried 2 pieces

4k grit Shapton glass

Bevel at 4k barely pops hair unlike all my other razors at 4k

Thank you

Okay I will just focus on X strokes to keep the pace even! Maybe I will try video tape and post it.

I will try that as it is worth a shot, I could only learn something. Should I start with the 1k Chosera or since I am so close should I just bevel set on the 4k SG?

I will probably get with him. What I cannot understand is how my other Harts with the same 1/4" grind and manufactured steel? have no problems setting bevels and shave wonderfully but this one won't.

I don't mean hours in one sitting. I mean hours of different times trying to set the bevel. I have meet with Bejay here from SRP he has shown me how to properly set bevels, and I have been very...

It did not shave well when I got it very tuggy. I have had good shaves with it, but not as crisp as all my other Hart blades. I can get a very straight and chip free edge with this razor but there...

I have removed quite a bit of metal lol getting to better steel and still unable to get the sides to meet, creating burrs and removing the with light and another time with heavy pressure and still...

Old Hart steel razor.

I have tried light, medium and heavy pressure on a Chosera 1k, and the same type of sessions on a 4k. Also did these sessions with different levels of tape. No matter what technique I used the...

An extreme angle = a very steep angle. With all of my other Harts they pop hair with the spine flat on my arm, this has been consistently repeated with success every time. When I have to raise the...

Hello gentlemen! First off because of SRP and meeting Brian I have successfully honed bevel set to finish stone on all my hard 62HRC plus razors 8 Harts, PRC's and Koraat razors!!! They all shave...
