Thanked: 3been shaving for a few months
Alright i have been shaving with a str8 for almost 3 months now and i have gotten much better.. i only use a str8 to shave. i do not use my mach whatever at all.. the only thing i have to keep my razor sharp is a strop.. i understand that i will need to send it off to get honed every so often .. i was told about 2 or 3 times a year. Will stropping my razor before and after every shave keep it good until i send it to be honed or should i use something else other than a strop. from what i under stand honing a razor is not that hard.. it's just harder to do it right.. and i know i am pushing it here but one more question. there is a guy on my street that has a knife and tool sharping shop in his house.. should i bother asking him if he can hone my razor or is sharping knives and stuff way diffrent?
sorry for all the questions..
if only one gets answered i thank you.
