    Just finished my shave, 4-passes (my normal) and BBS. Felt just a little harsher and a couple spots XTG did not seem to run as easy as normal. Did another 40 laps on linen (premium fabric, actually)...

    Just did my normal refresh on the Naniwa Super Stine 12000. No attention to the uneven bevel. Just a limited amount of no pressure laps until it felt good gliding on the stone. Then 50 laps on linen...

    Don't think it's the stropping as I can keep the edge very good on my Aust and TI for a long time, this one, not so much.

    No tape, after refreshing on the 12k it shaves great, but the edge does not last very long, much Les than my TI or Aust.

    I will try some photos later today, after I get home. Razor shaves okay but does not seem to hold an edge well. Purchased from SRD and only refreshed maybe three times on a 12000 Nani.

    Uneven Bevel

    I have a Dovo Bismarck with an uneven bevel. One side is very slight. To even this out should I start on the 1000 with equals laps on both sides or concentrate on the light side.

    Thanks.
