Thread: Honing service question.

I agree with BigSpendur - unfortunately it does take four times as long to sort 4 razors out as one time-unit for one razor. Actually it's generally longer as with four razors you will often get three white hats and one black hat and, if you're unlucky, a real bandit! I have been asked this before and repsonded the same way - it's not being awkward, just pragmatic.

I guess I asked because in the "read this first" thread it talks about where to have your razor honed and in some or one of the providers' price includes return shipping so wouldnt it be cheaper in postage to send one box w/4 razors than four boxes seperate. I realize that these folks who do this are exceptionally skilled and take their time on their work and that more blades means more man hours. And whats this with white and black hats?

White and Black hats is just a term that has been used to describe blades that are easy to sharpen and those which are a b***h!

White = good
Black = b***h

I offer a small discount on honing multiple blades, just because it saves me trips to the post office... What with gas prices and all...

I will pay the return shipping on 4 or more razors... (priority mail)
