Side note: I always assumed my Respecto #77 was a 5/8", until I measured it yesterday and found out that it was a cool 6/8" :cool:. Since this is the razor on which I experiment my honing skills (and my go-to-blade), I tried Ben's method of honing (I taped the spine) using both the Coti and BBW sides of my natural Y/BBW stone. The razor took on an amazing edge without the need to go to my Naniwa 12K for polishing. Very nice (Thank you Ben).
Enjoy your day gentlemen :).
