    I'm bookmarking this thread until after I've honed some more (only 3 so far).

    I've had 15 new and vintage blades honed by 5 people who I know do a good job, and two of the new ones I just don't like the shave from. Lynn actually re-honed one for me and said words to the effect, if you don't like it now, you just don't like this razor. I still am sad to say, I still don't like the way it shaves me (or I shave me with it). But heck, I've now done 500 shaves with 15 different razors and I don't like the way two shave, I guess 2 of 15 is a good ratio. However my heart tells me they all ought to work. Anyway, I'll reawaken this thread somewhere down the road after I've honed 100 (if I live that long).
