I don't filter and do rinse, so that's probably what it is. I usually get that little grit thing after rinsing or re-whetting, so it's probably just that - water poop.

yes. Howard rounded the edges. Whatever it was I just rinsed it off.

after lapping my coticule the first couple times the razor felt like it was bumping up against something small - I wonder if tiny diamond particles that came off were the culprit. Interesting.

Russel, thank you. I do actually own a DMT 325 and didn't think of just giving the blue a qucik minilap to get the slurry going. Sorry, didn't mean to hijack this thread back to it's original...

you know, I've got some blue flagstones on my back patio....hmmmmmmm......maybe I can lap those puppies and hone my razor.......:w

I have a yellow coticule and yellow coticule slurry (cotigura) stone. I'm buying a blue coticule.

Any reason not to use the same yellow coticule slurry stone on both my yellow and blue...
