I am now getting better, excellent results with my black ark as a finisher.
I am accepting that it is a slow finisher, so am using it the same way I use my diamond pasted balsa, which is giving it some light treatment after each shave.
I used diluted Ballistol and fifty X strokes.
I have realized that instead of being frustrated with how some honing mediums are, instead I should embrace it, as slow means that eventually you get great edges.
My Bismark this morning, finished on a black ark, gave a really enjoyable shave.
I'm going to keep on doing it this way.
