Thread: About to take the plunge!

I bought a cheap and alright condition antique store razor to learn to hone with so I didn't screw up my nice blades. I have been pleased with the decision and still use it as my "go-to" razor when trying new things regarding honing. I learned how to shave comfortable off the 8k, then the 12k, then paste/spray. Now I want to up my game to barber hones and natty stones.

I think the issue is getting the right hone setup, which is the costly bit.
