I was the recipient of a straight razor shave at a local mens salon (thanks to the wife). I was amazed at how close the shave was and have been lurking and learning ever since. I think that I am ready to take the jump into a dovo special. I keep hearing about people talking about honing. The never mention how often this is done. I have heard every shave to every 2-3 months. What is the story? If it is every few months, I may get 2 straights so that I am not lacking during mail time. Any ideas? I really don't want to hone. I have seen my pocket knives after I get finished with them.
