    Default Razor Honing In Canada

    I've been searching for about a month for a place to have my razor sharpened professionally, and cannot find anything.

    I'm around the Toronto area, and am just putting this out there in case someone might know of a place.

    I don't want to mail my razor out that I've waited a month for. I'd rather have a store or studio I can personally go to every few months.

    Any information would be greatly appreciated

    If you are looking for a retail outlet that can do this sort of work,, PM mikedelo about his recent experience with retail shops. I would seriously consider contacting floppyshoes, hes in Canada and of very good repute! BTW Xman is somewhere up there as well!

    Sounds like a good excuse to buy another razor

    I live in the Toronto area also, so I when I sent my razors out to hone a while ago (I'm competent enough to hone my own razors now) I just sent them to floppyshoes. I got them back in no more than 2 weeks, and he did a fantastic job. I'm sure there are other great honers out there too, just my 2 cents!
