Sweet vid, I use a keen cutter barbers hone that my Gf has and it's awesome. I use that hone on a fiskars x7 hatchet and svord vtb bowie and they are scary sharp for such large cutting edges.
Hello Joe, I know this is an old video, but I just picked up a Franz Swaty and this was helpful thanks. You mentioned a followup video one stone sharpening on a conical. Is that video available?
Great video thanks a lot, what is the grit level around these barber hones? say if they are somewhere between 8-10k, so what is the difference between an ordinary quality wetstones like Naniwa or Natural hones like coticule or arkansas or charnly forest etc.? is it the size so it can be carried in pocket? If you already have a decent set of natural and/or synthetic hones, then what is the main reason for these barber hones?
