so i have been thinking of buying my first straight razor and so far i like this one


Dovo Straight Razor with Faux Mother of Pearl Scales, 5/8"


It says its pre-sharpened but it still needs to be honed apparently? what is the difference. All i have is a strop so far and a separate strop with some dovo red paste so will i need to have this sent out for someone else to do?
