Yes. I'm not very good with the belgian yellow; and next time I want to play with a new hone don't do it on a razor in the rotation. It just wasn't terribly sharp yesterday after honing it on the coticule, and the chrome oxide I used didn't really improve it much today. So it wasn't sharp enough for a really good shave, but not dull enough to put down for another. So I got a decent shave but that's it. Before I headed out this morning I honed it on the Shaptons and chrome oxide and it looks back to its old self again. I'm not terribly impressed with the coticule, but I've only used it a few times whereas I've been using the Shaptons for many months and I've gotten used to them.
