I went out and bought a honing block set and just couldn't get the hang of honing. I'm now back to using regular razors instead of the straight ones.

I wouldn't mind giving it another shot, but if I can focus my energy on some slightly different area's maybe I'll get better results.
For me Ibwas often jumping too soon before bevel setting and between grits. It ended up ruining all tge work that went before. A good starting point is the pyramid here in the wiki.
