Good explanation of pressure/torque as it relates to blade grind and stone type. Thank you for the tip Devan. Nice visual.

Well, i can’t tell how these ideas will be received when I post them (or if this is helpful at all ….🤣) but I do hope it offers some clarity on the matter.

Im late 😅 , fascinating talk Devan ...so many variables with applying pressure/torque , good to see those blades flexing , perfect demonstration 🎉 your the boss !

Yes, I hope this helps but admittedly, this is old information. I’m afraid I’m going to get accused of trying to pass off well-known material as something I came up with which I didn’t. Thanks for watching!

@devanjackson509 well old or new info , it's the first time I've seen blade flexation so clearly shown 👏👍.

Good visual, I do believe torque is needed early on, in my process. In some cases, like a coti, all the way while slowly reducing until final water laps. But that’s me and how I do it. There is always too much pressure we should avoid, as you pointed out, it is razor dependent. Again, nice visual and explanation.

I hesitated to post this video because it would be very easy to interpret this as, “let’s all just use more pressure across-the-board regardless…” Mostly what I’m trying to get across is trying to establish where the “stop sign” is on a razor before I even get started. Thanks for watching!

Good visual on pressure with the pipe. Those thin (especially wide 7/8 full hollows flex easy)

Theres a spanish youtuber called "Las Navajas de Verdakrajono" that makes razor content, and he hones his blades with a borderline painful to watch amount of pressure, almost like a knife, but he seems to get good results. seemed to a bit excessive to me, but the "only weight of the blade, or less" crowd also feel a bit rigid in their thinking. There has to be a middle ground that is both efficient and doesnt bend the bevel to hell

@@MrKumbancha As this particular video demonstrates I base my choices based upon how much flex the razor has which is a byproduct of the grind. That way I don’t need to find a catch-all approach. Thanks for watching!

@@devanjackson509 yeah, i was more talking about how some people hone even wedges with only the weight of the blade, under the assumption that they can abrade the steel with "shallower scratches" that way, not really worried about the bending

Great video Devan! I think in person you didn't see it as well but looking at the recording you can definitely see the flex there between the two razors. When you use this to gage do you stay under the pressure you used with the pipe or do you add a little more due to the wider stone? So with a wider stone you're hitting a larger area of the razor so that pressure is distributed in a wider range as opposed to a narrower piece that has more pressured added to it? Not sure if i'm explaining myself well here.

You’re correct that when you lay the entire length of the blade on the stone that the flex dynamic changes. I’m going to leave it up to the viewer to decide how close to the flex point one should go but I try to stay just under it for the most part in terms of max torque. Thanks for watching!

I just base everything off the individual razor because of how different the grind can be from one blade to the next. Thanks for watching!
