Sorry, I have to totally disagree with that. I use tape for all honing and with patience and persistence I have been able to make an edge so sharp it was not a pleasant experience. I had to use a super light touch or else it cut me. I did this with 3 razors, a 6/8 W&B, a 9/16 Morely and a 4/8 Wedge brand several years ago. I do not make them that sharp anymore for anyone.
