After reading all the tutorials i have aa question about straight razor shaving...
I plan on buying a new razor from classic shaving, either a Dovo or TI, haven't decided yet and opting for the honing by Lynn through their website.
I know that a razor should be stropped before every use of the razor, but if it is professionally honed and I strop before every use, does it have to be re-honed?
If so how often, if not, yay.
thanks!
Pasted strops are another option
It'll kind of work out (timing between honings) once you get the hang of it. But you do eventually need to hone them, especially if you ding the edge somehow.
Also there seem to be hone guys and strop guys. I'm a strop guy, when they need a touchup they go on the pasted strops. Maybe once or twice a year they go on the hone but they probably don't even need that much. If there's no damage a pasted strop can keep the bevel fresh for a remarkably long time.
