    I have never personally honed a razor on anything less than 1000 grit, and would not even contemplate shaving off anything less than about 6000 grit. For producing the final edge that they will be shaving with, mostly guys prefer something in the 10,000+ grit range.

    Your cheapest option is to send it off to a honemeister to get it honed, then invest in a pasted paddle strop.

    What brand razor is it by the way? Some inexpensive brands are really only suited to be a letter opener.
