Thread: E-gamble

So I received my package of goodies and have completed the re-lapping of the hones.
This being a vintage barber eBay lot I should have figured most would be barber hones and they are.
There's a swaty, a magnahone from LA, and a few other courser carborundum hones. All synthetic except for one really fine one that I thought had pen marks on it, but after honing I'm finding they remain and may be veins of blue in the stone. Never seen that before.
Anyway, still happy for the score and will play with the stones some and see what kind of edge they give me.



Have the record pressed under a dictionary to try to take the curl out of her before I try to play her.
Cheers..

The record I received with my grab bag of shaving goodies plays quite well.
The cool thing bout the net is some sharp shaved gentleman already converted it and posted it on line.
