Sorry to bring this back up but...
Im waiting for the meet and greet and for hones to come in the mail. So ive not messed with that razor again but...
I was looking in the mirror getting ready to...

Well, I am of the older persuasion. 95% of my hair is grey. It seems to me that my hair is just very fine and grey now so it might not be the type that works like this HHT needs. I'll figure out...

Great info. Ill try some other hairs. I did try my grandaughters hair and that didnt work. The wife cleans her brush out every time she uses it. I got cat hair? Hear kitty kitty. The wife would kill...

Thanks for that Bob. Makes me feel i little better.

It will shave arm hair at skin level. Not above skin level and ive never been able to do the HHT. Maybe its my hair, i dont know. Ive just never been able to do the HHT. Even with a freshly honed...

Ok. I can give that a try. I ended with a few strokes on water only aready but it sure cant hurt to give it a try. Thanks for the input.

Oh, i understand. No offence taken here. I thought maybe you was going to send me a razor to have. Just kidding. Thanks for checking on me.

Yep. I got a couple i still use. Not goingvto mess those up. Plus i got 3 more in the mail headed to me that Cudarunner just fixed up for me. So im good as far as shaving. Ive only messed with one,...

It failed shave test. Im going to start over. I got some nagura stones on the way. And with better magification i think ill be better off. We will see in the future if it gets better after i start...

I got off work early today. Only a 13 hr day. I've spend the last 30 min's trying to look at the edge or getting a clearer look at the bevel. I just cant see the edge and I cant get a clearer...

Well, by looking at those picture my pictures really suck! Might are not even close to that clear. I need to work on that for sure. Ill keep working on this. See if i can see any reflection on the...

I will tty the sharpie trick. Hadnt thought of that. I should be good but that will surely tell. As far as looking straight down the edge? I've tried that but i cant see the edge. Maybe i need...

Just cant get it any clearer with my phone.

I did it that way. The way i always do. Ill try it again.

OK, Here it is after correcting the double edge. Used Tape this time as I should have in the beginning. Spine against the hone at all times and next to no pressure. Still not getting as nice a pic as...

Thanks for the info Mainaman. I'll take it to heart. Waiting on some nagura. But I need to fix what I started now. I think with some time I'll get it done. We will see.

Very nice small Shoubudani for razors.

Shoubudani is the jnat. I ordered some of those little stones to get different grits for slurry but dont have them yet. I wanted ti learn to do this the natural way not the synthetic way. Hope i made...

Well, i think next time i go at this i will need to tape and do alot of work to get a single bevel set. I dont have anything but the jnat at this time so its not like i can do much. Im happy i got a...

It is lacking in keenness is why i wanted to touch it up. And i know exacly what tape was used on this bevel so its my fault that i didnt use tape to match. Ill give it another go in a day of two....

Winner!
I forgot to use tape as the man used tape to hone it before me. I agree, I need better lighting and the bottom one was dark and out of focus. I need to do better with my pics and eyes and...

I have a hand loupe. A cheep one and its 60x. I tried to put it in front of my phone and get a couple pics. So here is what I got.
