Much appreciated! The voice over thing lets me condense the video and capture the essence of the hone and reduce repetition and video length. It maybe something I use more over on honing videos.
I go the long route, I just hate to remove more steel than needed. A man can get more aggressive with the diamond plate. I just prefer to limit that in my approach. I have over done a few razors in the learning processes, that taught me to take a more measured approach.
Hi Eric I love videos of that kind! I think that's the harder part about shaving with a straight razor. Ok I even have a lot to improve in shaving too. And I will soon see how it's the honing to learn and I'm looking really forward! Have a great day Eric😊
I would say yes, but finer does not always mean better, just like harder does not mean better. They are natural stones, so things can change stone to stone. It’s up to the honer to maximize the end result. With that said, I would take a coticule over any other natural stone. It the right hands, it’s hard for beat.
Excellent job Eric!
Thanks Matt
Thanks for getting her in shape for me Eric! Great to watch and learn as always.
Man it’s a nice razor. I hope you enjoy it, your scale work is amazing. They’re beautiful and it feels great in hand. It was a fun project.
Wow! What a transformation! Great work!
Thanks Barry
Good work, Eric! It is always a pleasure to see a new video in the que.
Much appreciated!
Nice editing Eric and the voice over worked really well.

Hi Eric. Nice demo. This 3k arata must be a nice stone. Have a good one
I like it, it’s the 15mm version of the Chosera Pro stones.
Awesome video Eric! Frown removal is something I’ve struggled with. Great tips, I’ll be trying these out.

That’s awesome Robert. Once you get started honing, let me know if you need any help. Make sure and post some honing videos 🤣😜
@@Eric_TheCajunBlade Of course Eric! 👍🏼
Perfect job 👏 I bread knife it🔪 first , then exactly as you did with taped spine 👍.
Thanks Martin, it worked out pretty ok.
First!
Awesome video Eric! Learned a lot on how to correct these
I would not expect anything other than first from Mr Diplomat.
Is it wrong if i didnt use tape when i set my bevel? I mean regarding function, not look....
Also what is "my zulu grey"?😁
You don’t ever have to use tape. It’s a personal preference. In this case I did not want to do any excess spine wear while I was doing the correcting.
A Zulu Grey is a South African natural finishing stone.
@@Eric_TheCajunBlade I thought its a stone, but i wanted to be sure. So is the Zulu finer than coticule, from what i see?
I would say yes, but finer does not always mean better, just like harder does not mean better. They are natural stones, so things can change stone to stone.
