    Great vids Sham!

    It will definitely improve my hoing stroke. I currently use two hands for honing.. one holding the scale end and one keeping the spine on the hone (with just one or two fingers..lightly steering the razor)

    Unfortunately all my razors seem shave ready at this moment.. I just honed 3 razors yesterday..

    Thanks!

    Default Thanks for the videos

    Great videos. The explanation is very thorough. These are very helpful to a curious mind without any real experience honing.

    These are up there with the best honing videos I have seen so far! Thanks a lot for posting them. I know you wanted to show off your hones during the video and you said you don't like belgians, right? What is your progression of stones after the DMT1200? Also where do you start for your touch up honing?

    Default hone

    after 1200 i use 4k/then 8k side now you ready.
    touch ups the best option is barber hones my personal opinions.
    i think i used 1 barber hone in videos.

    what you see on video is less then half hones i have .i wanted use as much as hones i can but problem was time and i have never done this before. it was recording on HD and it took me 2 days find out how to split them .i got help from member to split them.
    my mistake was i honed not to close to usb camera l realize late and try to stretch out my hand. Again it is first time and i learned from it.next time i won't do that type mistakes.
