Ok ok, this is the second time I've been warned about these pakistani razors. I will get rid of them. My thoughts were to use them to get used to the technique of honing. Use them to get a feel for it and then use my good razors to really get a grasp of what I'm doing.
I'm leaning more towards the 5/8 razor ... I can see that heading into the beginning of a collection of razors!

Thank you all for the advice!
