Misread someone else’s post.

There are guys that specialize in honing Gold Dollars you can send it to them or learn to hone it yourself.

Some Gold Dollars will hone easily, some need repair, some will not hone at all, not many, which is why they are not recommended. Some that sell them honed, have already made the repairs for you.

The easier solution is to buy a quality razor as you have done and learn to maintain it.

Put a loop of Para Cord on your strop and loop it to your bathroom doorknob.

Part of your problem is probably stropping, most new stroppers use way too much pressure and roll the edge. Buy or make a paddle strop and use lite pressure to learn to strop and keep you shaving, or lay your strop flat on a counter.
