I'm just after a sanity check to make sure that the conclusion from my testing is right.
When razor starts to tug a little and stropping doesn't make too much difference, I normally give it about 60-70 laps on the Shapton 12k and it is good to go again for another few months.
Now, my 7/8 Harner started to tug a little last week so instead of giving it the usual laps on the Shapton 12k, I gave it 70 laps on my JNAT (Nakayama Asagi). I did a couple of strokes with it during my shave today and whilst it was a little better, it wasn't much better and certainly not shave ready.
Now my conclusion is that the the Nakayama Asagi is therefore a higher grit than the 12k. Does that sound about right?
