Welcome to SRP. If you have some sort of magnification you might take a look at the edge under it with a light. Not being familiar with the people who did the honing I can't say whether they are qualified. Look for micro chips in the edge that can cause an uncomfortable shave. These might be too small to be seen with the naked eye.
It could also be your preparation and/or technique. Skin stretching and blade angle are all important. It comes with time and practice. There are shaving videos here.
If you haven't seen it already there are tutorials here in the SRP Wiki on all things related to straight razor shaving.Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
