    Default the journey has begun !!

    so i have purchased and just received my first natural stone to add to the synthetics ..
    it is a 7x2 La Grise Natural Combination Coticule ... so now the journey begins into the experimental stages of honing on a natural to try to see what kinda edge i can come up with ...

    You better hit it with a Defibrillator first, so it can swallow the aspirin.
    Nice stone.

    i had someone hide my wallet so i cant buy anything else for awhile !!!

    im in love with this stone !! just the look and feel of it is awesome !!! i honed 4 razors that i had set bevels on just waiting for this thing to arrive ,i couldnt tell you how many strokes or what i did cause i was just loving this thing , all felt super sharp ( didnt do any test ) went to the bathroom for a shave all full of excitement and anxiousness , first pass left the skin smooth but tugged on all of them ..... so i will try this again ...lol..maybe read up on them a bit more and try a few more razors ...
