Thread: my new kamisori

Very nice. It arrived pretty quick considering the trip it made.
So did it come "shave ready"?

thank you all gentlemen.....

it did not come shave ready... i am here at work and fixing to hone it up *(must find the video for the PROPER method before i start
honing away...... )

i will also take some measurements off it and try to get a better shot of the markings on the blade....

i watched gssixguns wonderful video on the kamisori... then broke out the chinese 12k and went to town.... then made a few passes on a strop with .5 micron diamond paste and then stropped it a couple strokes....

HOLY $*&T!!!! passed HHT on all parts of the blade and i was able to split a hair lengthways......

gonna be really really careful shaving with this tonight....

I have always thought that some of the PHIG's might be good for Kamisori I have just never gotten around to trying it
Did you use slurry ???

Let us know what ya think
