    Default Newbie Honing Kit

    Alright, here we go: I've got a "newbie honing kit" together: the usual DMTs (325 - 1200 - 8000 aka Coarse, Extra Fine and E-Extra Fine aka D8C, D8E and D8EE) and a coticule (and a holder for it). Also have pastes and a paddle strop in case the honing should prove successful. Also have a nice and dull, errr, I mean "shave ready" ebay special. I have some warm water with a few drops of dishwashing liquid in a bowl next to the hones, on the kitchen table. All I know is that I have to slide the razor over the hone edge leading, in an X pattern so that the whole edge gets honed and that I should flip it over the spine to avoid edge damage prior to sliding it back. Wish me luck!
