Bought a la veinette a few months back from Ardiness, (had an unexpected work bonus .
Anyway thought I'd familiarise myself with it so tapes up a problematic razor and raised a slurry.
This took a little longer than the dresante which I have learned as I'm newish to this method of honning.
Dulled edge on glass,then took razor through paces until poping arm hairs nicely ( am bald on left arm:O ) they popped so easily so thoght I'd scope edge at 100x and could hardly discern any of my usual chiping problems. So impressed with this I tested hht at 2 straight of bevel set.B)
WOW, to say I'm impressed is an understatement, dread to think where this will go after dilutions and finishing.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? It's amazing that just changing hones can make such a big difference to a given razor.
