Hello all,
I'm a new member, and also new to honing. I've wet shaved for ever and have used a straight for many years as well. I was given a hone years ago by a barber and I really didn't know anything about it. I usually just took my straights to a barber whenever they needed touch-up. Those days are gone, so I've been using an old Panama barber hone for touch-ups (works pretty good). I recently have discovered that the hone given me years ago is a combi BBW/Coticule and I'm now starting to learn to use it. I don't have a slurry stone for it, so I've been using a hard Arkansas to raise slurry with pretty poor results.
Can anyone direct me to a source of a real slurry stone?
Glad to be a member.
Thanks,
JasCas
