My failed attempt at a 1 stone hone on the coticule

At the bottom of this description, you can see how the edge appeared through the different steps. Just a cheap Carson lens, so photos are not the best.

Tried to do a 1 stone hone on my current coticule. The stone did not have enough cutting power/slurry to bring the edge up to its normal coticule finish. More slurry could have been a solution. At the moment, I don't have a softer coticule that would work as a good slurry stone. Using the 8k for just a short bit greatly improved the edge and saved time.

In the video, I spoke some about the performance of coticules. My, probably controversial, opinion is most coticules won't be that great at 1 stone honing. I think most stones will either be too slow (due to size or cutting power) or unable to finish at the level I enjoy. Will note I prefer a sharper edge and these are just my opinions.
