No myth; that's very similar to how I use my Smith's Tri-Hone to sharpen my razors. :-)

Very cool. All this talk about slurry and various hones ..... all I needed was a dry tri hone and I'd have been in business.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

I wonder how bad that razor is that's gonna take 1 or 2 days to hone.

I love it, Did you see his smooth fluid honing technique...he's done that a few times....
10/10 on the strop.....? The strop looked like an old Cordovan to me...It seemed to have that slick coating...
