Thread: How many people hone themselves?

I hone my skills...and my razors

As far as dealing with issues...I enjoy the challenges, and feel I have more successes than failures, but I have one blade that I still have not fixed to my satisfaction

Ah!, True, but yet, every time you try a new razor, stone, or new issue with an edge, you do hone your skills at the same time you hone that edge.

Speaking of such things, it is close to the end of Movember and I have a new (to me) 7/8 Gong full hollow that I am going to hone up especially for the occasion - and hope I don't lose my top lip going ATG

I do my own honing unless its a big wedge thats been butter knife at some point. Then its Nathans problem

I have about a dozen razors now, and only three that are officially shave ready by my standards. I'm just starting the process of learning to hone. It's been a journey, for sure, but a fun and rewarding one. Learning how to make lather, shave, strop, searching for new razors, a little bit of restoration work, and now learning to hone! Where you end up on your little journey is up to you - but have fun wherever you wind up!

Oh yeah, and my razors have issues being called 'practice razors'. Don't let them hear that!

ok guys - here is my poll...
