today's honing

Revisor 6/8 shave number three coming up 65 laps on leather. Plan on upping the number of laps until I hit 100 and see how long that keeps it keen

Russian '65 onto the Blue dressante coticule with light slurry for  3 sets of circles, then 30 reps pf push strokes then dilute into X strokes and 40 laps on water to finish. Not sure. 30 on linen and 50 on leather

Russian Wood scales 63 re do on Nakayama #1 start with soft uchi slurry for 3 sets of circles then Oozuku ( new nagura) with 30 reps of push strokes then hard uchi slurry for 40 X strokes . then 30 linen and 50 leather. Will see, did not finish on water for a change with the Jnat. This is the blade with the cretan/water edge.

tomorrow:))

SHAVE REPORT:


SUCCESS! ON ALL FRONTS. SHAVE NUMBER THREE WITH THE REVISOR WAS EVERY BIT AS KEEN AND SMOOTH AS DAY ONE. UPPING THE REPS ON THE STROP SEEMS TO BE WORKING. LETS SEE HOW FAR I CAN TAKE THIS.70 REPS TODAY


'65 RUSSIAN CAME UP PERFECT! FINISHING ON THE COTICULE WORKED LIKE A CHARM. COULDN'T ASK FOR A SMOOTHER SHAVE


'63 RUSSIAN AS WELL! THE NAKAYAMA CAME THROUGH AGAIN. THAT METHOD JUST FLAT OUR WORKS FOR ME.


ANOTHER SET OF BLADES TODAY.
