Post this in the honing section, there are a lot of guys from FL, GA, and AL such as myself that would probably do it if you paid for postage. If not try the vendors section, a lot of guys there, and pretty reasonable rates at that. :gl:
That's a beauty! Enjoy it.
Pro honers can be found under member services.
After that you will need to learn to strop before each shave.

Thanks Tiddle! I have a strop, and it came with some stones. but I didnt want to try and tackle it myself because i know that honing/stropping isnt as easy as it looks.
Wouldn't mind test shaving...errrrr working on it myself :w
Did she give it to you in that condition? If so you are a lucky son of a gun man
Very nice looking razor/heirloom.
Check out the vendor services section. These guys are good. However there are some amateurs that may live in your area that perhaps you could travel to and see the job done in person...could be a great learning opportunity!
Pics of the hones!!!
Barberbrett, that is a truly beautiful razor! May you use it for decades to come!!!
What are those hones over there? The razor is in pretty darn nice shape!
