    My razor hasnt been honed by a honemeister, I dont think anyways..! Would it be worth my while sending it off to have it honed?

    Hi,
    YES! Then you'll get a razor that you know is up to snuff, and you can use it as a benchmark. You can focus on your technique and will be able to tell what is working or not.

    Also, when you get it back, do not strop it the first time-- many times poor stropping technique will dull the edge, so shave with a "perfect" edge first, then strop it for your next shave and compare the results.
