My biggest challenge now is trying to reduce the margin of poor apex Integrity in the absence of proper magnification. Would joining the edge periodically throughout the progression followed by...

I’m not sure about the length unfortunately. Thanks

I reposted it. There was some confusion as to who’s edge it was. In the reloaded video I made it much clearer that the photos were of my work and not his. I’ll post a link to the new video...

Here’s the brutal truth about a couple of edges. Surprisingly the worst looking edge was the better shaving razor which was finished on a Coticule under running water. The one with all the pronounced...

I’ve been having trouble posting on this thread today. Anyway I did a Coticule edge today and it turned out very much to my liking. Very mild yet more than sharp enough for the job. I think I may be...

Thanks for the video. I just checked and Matt is in AZ and not on the east coast just FYI.

I’ll keep this in mind. I’d like to know more about using dry hones. But heres the thing, before I do anything else with this razor I’ve decided to send it to drmatt357 so he can determine whether or...

Yeah I’m still not set up for that yet. I have a 20X dissecting scope that works for me but it’s quite likely that better magnification could reveal another explanation as opposed to just being too...

I understand your logic. But the only thing is that I haven’t tried really maxing out any other razor like this. This might be worth trying out to have a few more examples to compare.

It’s an unknown solingen razor. It had very little wear when it came it the mail some time ago. I’ve been SR shaving for around 3 years now and I have my technique reasonably well rehearsed. I’ve...

I found a scope that’s iOS compatible via WiFi. That would allow me to post some pics. It’s possible that you guys may see something I’m missing. But I just checked again and it still looks clear of...

Guys I did check the edge repeatedly and I was happy to see that it was free of chips. I usually try to work “up” to an edge. I haven’t had to back an edge down before. I know that most of you may...

I spent about 15 minutes doing water only laps. Maybe next time I’ll try cutting the time in half. I probably just overshot the sweet spot...

Ok. I didn’t really consider that. I’ll see if it calms down a bit. Otherwise I’m going to see what I can do with my Dressante. I enjoy my JNats but I’m still not able to dial in my edges off them...

Well yesterday was the 1st time I’ve ever honed an edge that was just way too sharp. I came off 5k to diamond slurry to tomo slurry on a size 100 Shoubodani. I cleaned it of and did water laps until...
