This was my first shave off a refresh on a Shapton 12k and .5 diamond felt. When I got this razor, the blade was SO good, I have had this weird fear of even touching it with my in experienced hands, like I was gonna destroy it or something. Well, a few strokes and it is good as new.
In my time as a "honemeister" (HA) I am learning some stuff. I have learned that I prefer some "crispness" to my edges. I bought a Dan's Black Arkansas, that makes an edge smooth as ice, but I really prefer the feeling of a 12k and then .5 micron film, or .5 diamond spray.
Now I am just trying to learn whether or not it is my honing skills (or lack of) that require a bit of crispness, or if it really is a preference.
One thing about jumping into SR's: you are never short of something to work on.
Have a great Friday.
