The SRP forums are addicting! I've searched everywhere online and the majority of the helpful information comes right out of SRP. I've been diving into finding better beard prep until I can play around with the other gear (up until recently, I used Dial Softsoap to wash and shave with!). Aside from that I've seen a ton of tutorials on sharpening but IMO the best one uses the electrical tape to protect the spine and set the angle. On top of 4 and 8k stones, I'm throwing in a 12k to polish it up, a pasted strop and a clean one (with maybe some strop conditioner). I love hearing what works well for different people. It's the mindful techniques of the experienced honers that have my attention most!
