    For honemeister I agree.

    But the real fun begins when you agree to restore that razor, and you are working with very coarse sandpaper, dremel, cutting compounds, a grinder...
    That is where you need to be really sure that you can do this without damaging said razor.

    As for newbieness:
    - can you get good shaves without cutting yourself?
    - can you strop without dulling your razor?
    - can you touch up your edge to keep it sharp?

    if yes to all 3, then you are not a newbie imo.
    For honemeister I agree with thebigspendur and gssixgun
