These videos were great. Quality was very good in HQ too.

Thank-You for the great videos.

1. 45 minutes or so
2. there were 4-5 layers of tape, to alter the bevel. more than usual, but it was a solid wedge and we wanted to minimize honing time
3. a radio shack 60-100x pocket microscope

Great videos! Thanks for sharing. Ken, you've got a way with the hones...wish I had been there!

I can vouch for the edges he puts on razors, guys. Good stuff!

Thanks for sharing your knowledge on honing and stropping. I'm sure that W&B ended up with a wicked sharp edge.

WOW!

It's always very pleasing to see a highly skilled craftsman in action.
And there is a lot of good information being shared too.
That meeting must have been a real blast!
Thanks for sharing

Hello, Kendrup, Jockeys and the rest of the good guys:

Splendid work on these honing videos. They are highly educational. Thank you all for taking the time.

Regards,

The most interesting parts of these videos, for me, is the use of a BBW slury stone on the norton 4/8K combination stone. I have both coticules and nortons and I never thought of mixing the slurry of the BBW on the norton. I have used bbw slurry on a yellow coticule with success but never on a synthetic stone.

I find that slurry makes cutting much faster.

I used the BBW slurry on my Nortons the other day for a 7/8s wedge and it worked great. Thanks, Ken!
