As some of ours will soon order a new coticule from Ardennes
I'd like to know if there were specific BBW layers for the honing on BBW hone method
or if the BBW side of a La Veinette, La Petite Blanche... will suit. Otherwise it could be interesting to add something to the order
: ?

Bart said:About the BBW side of your hone, you can use it in the same fashion as your Coficule, but it's considerablly slower. If the bevel of a razor isn't too far off, you can get as good results off the blue side as you can get off the yellow side. Depending on the BBW, it can be better to finish on the thinnest possible slurry (one rub with a slurry stone), than on water only. Some experimentation is in order.
