Hey guys,
Success! Here is what I did. Took the razor to my DMT 1200 for some bevel work and extra attention to the heel (sorry about my confusing post

) After a while I could feel using the TPT test that the entire edge was sticky, and sticky to the same extent. I then went to my coticule with heavy slurry. I then checked under the light and the entire edge appeared nice and shinny. I then used very light slurry. After that I added some tape and went for my normal unicot method (I haven't really had the patience or chance to fully experiment with that method, but I know that one of my coticules is probably not a good candidate as it's more of a polisher). I shaved with the razor this morning (a fily #13 DT) and it gave me a very nice comfortable shave!
here are some of the razors I have coming in the next few weeks.
_ H. Diamond #1000
- Vintage INox 7/8 Friodur
- 1/4 Hollow W&B Razor with rescale and restoration from MAX
- 7/8 Full Hollow Super Doll razor (Japanese brand)
- Kanayama 30k
I have a feeling December is going to be a good shaving month
Cheers!
