Thread: What are you working on?

I spend most of my honing time on the 1,4,8K hones, the 10, 12, and natural finishers see very little action. On the old Sheffield wedges I go 1,4,8, natural. I however do have a nice Wade and Butcher that I received in a trade with a member here, and he finished it with the 20K and it shaved nice and smooth and held an edge for a long time, still has it actually. It is a very nice razor. So the hand does have a lot to do with the finish for sure.

Think I found my new quote right there I have, hehe. True dat Tom, true dat.

I didn't realize this job was akin to a chain letter, I will put nose to grinding stone forth with!!

Tally ho and all that..

Could I borrow that one a while?

The hone, I mean!

Nope, but I've thought about it.
Gonna have to replace the scales on my Genco, Gold seal eventually. The fog keeps Rollin in faster, n faster, all the time. I can wipe it off and silicone them, but its coming back and growing. Always in the open and singled out from the crowd, let's say "QUARANTINED"
But I'd have to cut them from sheet, and hand sand them like wood, only difference being of a finish. Crystal clear, satin, satin inside/ polished outside, lots of ideas for plastic/acylic.

The Wade and Butcher, absolutely.

Yep. My Craftsman and Sta-Sharp are going North.
Give 'em to someone who can fix them!

So I am in Genco 6/8 La La Land!

Wait, what hone. One of my naturals. Which one.

The 20k thing!........Uh!

OH! Nevermind! Rocks are expensive to ship!

Oh. No, I don't have the 20K. I have a Wade and Butcher that I traded for and it was finished on a 20K. I am stuck on natural finishers. I have a few. Some are ones I shaped and others are vintage hones.
