Not the same at all, & the hones that seem fine grit for a knife tend to be about where we start on a razor. Watch the videos in the wiki if you do intend to try it yourself.

If you really won't send it out to a honemiester, then I'll do it, if you wanted to send it to me. I don't claim to be a pro, but i do hone my own. PM me if you're interested. I can't bear the thought of you wrecking it!
