Hello all. I got a straight razor for Christmas last year and have been using it pretty consistently since then. I was thinking about getting a hone to maintain the blade a bit (it came professionally honed). I was wondering what recommendations you have for what to get and where to look.


Also, I'm pretty comfortable shaving the vast amount of my face. However, I can't seem to get a close shave at the very tip of my chin, and a little bit under it. By this I mean that everywhere else on my face I can get as close a shave as if I used a disposable razor, but in this one location it isn't even remotely as good. I've tried a multitude of different approaches but none seem to work out well for me. Any tips about getting that pesky area?
