So I made some significant process with the narrow hones. Geneva Cutlery razor. Started with the Shapton 1.5k, finished setting the bevel on the Soft Ark, then Hard Ark, and finished on Coticule with slight slurry, diluting further.
The shave today went really well. It cut most of the growth on the 1st pass and after the 2nd pass, I was at a DFS. I think the narrow hone made the difference in focusing on specific parts of the edge as it passed through.
I wouldn't say this is my favorite edge but it shaves well. Also, it's my first use on the Coticule so I'd have to do some more work on it. But I'm happy with the improvement and I think I'll repeat this process for the other problem razors. Thanks for all the help folks.
