I'm one of those weirdos that do ark progressions, so Washita first and couldn't get the bevel set and it didn't go well with a hard ark finisher either after a coticule progression. I have other Kamisori that do well with arks but not all of them. I'm not sure it has to do with the hardness, but maybe the alloys?My understanding about arka is that they only polish the edge and do t remove much of any steel. Sorta like the migaki-bo burnishing needle. I might be completely off the mark as well… They might be tempered very hard. How do they feel on other stones? Glassy?
Anyone know anything about these razors? Maker or steel used?
