Preparing for Shogun week. Trying to figure out my my starting lineup.
Good Friday shave! Yasuki steel and Eufros lather finished with Myrsol: hard to do better! Enjoy your Easter breaks! 
The Bismarck got a similar Coticule treatment as my GD. Splendid shave 
Sooo, how do you like the coti so far? Are you happy you got it?The Bismarck got a similar Coticule treatment as my GD. Splendid shave
I'm actually very happy.
You know I wasn't too sure about this as I was finishing on low micron pastes and getting good shaves. But this coticule as a post-paste finish makes it feel so extremely comfortable without sacrifising much or any cutting power. It really is a treat.
I've only used it like that for now, not yet tried after a bevel set, hone up with slurry mixtures up until a finish but I will later on ofcourse, just for the sakes of it. Don't have a bout though, could raise a slurry using a diamond plate...but I read somewhere that I'd be damaging the garnets doing so?
I just need to find a way to treat the wood, but I guess there's no rush in that. Not too keen on removing it from it's base.
Don't use a diamond plate to raise a slurry.
You can probably get a slurry stone from someone here quite cheap. I have a box of them.
The coticule magic is created by the slurry in my opinion.
