Thanked: 1When to send it back for a professional honing
Hey Guys, I know you probably get this question a lot. But what does it feel like to the newbie when it's time to send the SR to a professional to get honed again? What's the difference in feeling vs say just the normal learning curve (cuts, scrapes, razor burn) of getting used to shaving with a straight razor.

IF you have been getting shaves without any 'tugging' or 'pulling' or other types of 'resistance' to the razor cutting your beard and then you notice that there are some of the before mentioned, it's probably time to have your razor honed.
When I first started out I managed to keep a Pro Honed Edge shaving nicely for about 3 months with only a vintage Shell Leather Strop and no cloth but once the 'pulling' started it was all over. It was time to send it out.
I hope this has been of some help.Our house is as Neil left it- an Aladdin’s cave of 'stuff'.
