Hey Beaufort I'm also in Toowoomba. Did you have any luck finding anyone that hones around here?

I think your best bet is to look around south east qld. Specifically Brisbane and surrounds. I know you'd like some one on one help but unless you are able to travel to someone, our are prepared to wait for them to travel to you, I don't think you'll have a lot of luck in toowoomba, but I could be wrong.
Better off sending it out for honing so you can get shaving, then think about learning to hone.
Good luck.

Yeah there's nothing in Toowoomba. Not even the old barbers here hone anymore. Bris isn't far. I'll head that way and try. Thanks Jimbo
I'm now settled in on the Sunshine Coast (Palmwoods) if that's any use to anyone.
I called King Of Knives, the chain knife shop found in many large shopping centres. The Carindale store will hone a razor for $15 (it's honed off-site by a pro).
I'd just check with them again to make sure they do have someone - I used to do it for them but contacted them to let them know I couldn't anymore about 2 or 3 weeks back now. I don't know how long ago you talked to them - if it was recent it sounds like they've found someone already, which is good. But if it was a few weeks ago, you may be out of luck.
