    Default Dallas - Fort Worth April Get Together

    Hey Guys -
    I've got to make this a quick post, but I wanted to see if there was interest to do the get-together again. John Crowley has offered to put on a HONING CLASS. His honing skills are highly respected and I for one would really appreciate some hints and techniques!
    The suggested locale is Sherlocks http://www.mapquest.com/maps/lincoln...:d::25:::::/e/ at I30 and Collins St on the Southwest side of the street.
    Whaddaysay? Who's with me? What Saturday works with your schedules?

    Default How does Saturday May 3rd sound?

    I volunteered to work at my regular job on Saturday the 26th when the word overtime was spoken by my boss. I had not heard a projected date for the gathering at that time so it wasn't on my mind. How does Saturday May 3rd sound to everyong from North Texas and elsewhere? Shirlocks has plenty of tables in the back where we can hone up some hair spliters. Those of you who have no clue how to hone can take note of my technique and masters may get some alternative ideas. I hope to see all of you there.

    May 3rd works for me too.

    I am looking forward to the meeting. I am now looking for my first str8, since I have been using a Dovo Shavette that I bought to see if I liked the experience. I would like something mid-range, nice, but not TOO nice, since I haven't touched a hone or strop yet, and recognize the potential danger I pose to a blade! So if any of you are looking forward to thinning out your stock a little, I would sure like a chance to buy from somebody at the meeting.

    I am also excited to learn about honing from someone like John. What a great way to get started.

    Hope the 3rd works for everyone.
