Honing with a Charnley Forest !

Just arrived today my first Charnley Forest stone, beautiful green natural English slate , cheeky pink line running down the middle 😅
3k Naniwa professional to 5k shapton to 8k Naniwa super white .
Nice feel with this ⅞ GEO superb nos razor and unusual all wood 🪵 case ( similar to Puma ,but beechwood not plastic composite)
I've been fortunate with slates ? so hopefully with this one, too 🙏 .

Really great commentary. Very entertaining.

Charnley Forest is one of my go to European stones as I love the edge it leaves.

[@DevanJackson]

I have as well but I haven’t used it yet. It was so badly dished that I had to send it out to be resurfaced. It should arrive today in fact! It looks almost identical to the one shown in this video.

@@DevanJackson that dished out?! With stones like that I put on my ear defenders and bust out the silica powder and start lapping! I should post an updated picture of my little stone collection.

Isopropyl Alcohol will readily remove Sharpie from steel.

There’s no easy way to say this but Charnley Forest stones are Novaculite, not slate….🤣

[@Martins-Shaves123]

No easy way to say this 😅😂I looked it up on several sites ...some say slate? so confusing when half say slate and half say novaculite!

Only idiots or the seriously misinformed think that.
