What's up, buddy? It could have been better, my technique wasn't as good as it used to be...Hey stranger. How was the shave?

Thanks Alex. I am loving this one. It sits right at that 4+-5lv hardness and is just a joy to hone on. I need to try a Japanese knife on it and see what it will do. I didn't use any tomo just Atoma slurry.Pretty stone Tom.
Coticule touch up.
If you are struggling to get a good edge with your coticule. Try finishing on a few drops of mineral oil. This little trick has made all the difference for me. Sharp and smooth. A really nice edge. Washes off cleaning with dish soap and does not soak into the stone.

Batch work today. Two recent acquisitions, a Yasuki 100 6/8 full hollow and a Robeson 6/8 full hollow as well as my original razor, an Ontario Cutlery 4/8 1/2 hollow. All of these are fat bevels, around 19 degrees. Finished the stone progression today, they are marginally treetopping. I will take them to the pasted strops tomorrow.

cleaned up the TI last night and some this morning then honed. ran on the 12k Kuromaku and then on to the Jnat Shobudani. as it turns out I had one fresh felt dremel disc left. this combined with Mothers metal polish is capable of removing the AOS logo with little effort.
will dial her in to my liking over the next few days. really love the horn scales.

Nice rock
