    Default Questions about st8 razor shaving...

    So I just bought a feather ac rg model non sharpen razor. I'm hoping I like it a lot. Up until recently I dabbled in DE razors and haven't really enjoyed the experience, in my opinion with de shaving there is just to much variables in terms of enjoyment and in other words too much ymmv scenarios ( such as the only blade I liked and that agreed with my face was the astray blades). To be quite honest though I never shaved with it for more than a week because I found it so irritating with the constant trying of different blades although I've had my merkur bc for a few months now and I have used it many times just never over a week. So now I'm making the transition to exclusive AC shaving when it arrives on Friday. I have a feeling I'm going to enjoy it and am probably going to want to try a real st8. Couple question though. I understand the tools needed and such but is it possible to just buy a nice razor and accidently ruin it? Like if you hone it incorrectly and such and then it being ruined? One of my biggest concerns is dropping 150 on an awesome razor and then having it be worthless due to being a noob and ruining the blade lol. Another question I have is eventually honing and stropping easy? Thanks and great site by the way
