    Default Wednesday

    Same as Tuesday, but I took both razors for 3, 1/3 laps, a tiny pyramid.
    Better, but not quite. I had to finish the against the grain pass with MY Bresnick Special.
    Those two are gonna get a small pyramid next.

    Used the Satinedge again, but honing it on Norton actually made it WORSE. Gave me a couple of nicks and lots of pulling. I guess I have to get to know the stone a bit better before I use it on my shavers again. My two shavers will go back to the Japanese slipstones and the coticule for starters, at least until I figure out the Norton with my project blades. The only other change in gear/procedures was using DBR instead of my homemade mix.
