I used to grow a beard when I was a logger, just returned to the military however and had to shave again. So I decided to use a straight razor. I have only been doing it for 2 months. I bought a Boker Eidelwiess, it did not come shave ready, so I bought a Norton 4/8 stone without success. So I decided to purchase a Dovo Bismark that was sharpened by Lynn so I could sent the Boker in to him. I noticed that the Dovo was getting a little dull and tried to use Lynns Youtube videos, I thought following them to a T, but all I have is a razor burned face from a dull blade. Need some pointers and looking for a lesson or local sharpener in the Fort Lewis, Washington area. Thanks in advance.
