I received a bout coticule (La Dressante) yesterday from Griffith’s and put an edge on my vintage Geneva. I spent 17 minutes on the stone. Using moderate pressure in the beginning and diluted to water. I finished under running water. It tree topped hairs very nicely after the stropping.
What a nice edge I got from her. I shaved with it today and it was sharp and smooth. It wasn’t as keen as my edge from the Wakasa but that is to be expected. The 2nd pass felt like butter. I know I will get better with the stone as well. Let’s roll!
