Thread: To Hone or not to hone

Good tips, thanks everybody. I think I'll do both...send my new one out to get done by a pro, and get a starter shave-ready as a second razor, comparison, and maybe an eventual first-practice tool.

Getting a honemeister honed razor is a very good way to understand where we set the bar. In my experience, though, those Dovos are not too far from shave ready. They've got a good bevel which can be quickly built upon.

From what you've decided, you'll have a couple of razors which'll need touching up soon so you'll get to see what that's like. Get those practice razors too because that's a different experience too.
