Howdy and welcome to SRP!
If I were you..... I would send your razors to a pro and have them honed up properly. By doing this you will know what an actual shave ready razor feels like when you shave. It will give you something to base your future honing on. Just a word of advice. If the equipment you have is in good condition use them. In time purchase a better ones if needed. No need to spend lots of money at first. Use what you have and gradually buy what you need.
Good luck!

Doesn't cost that much to have a pro hone up one or two of your razors, can then use that as a benchmark for your own honing attempts. That is how I am still improving my honing.

I like your idea guys. Having something to compare to would make honing better. At least I would know when I was done!
