Starting Out-Guidance Please
I have been wet shaving with a de for around 2.5 years now and I'd love to get into straight razors, but have yet made the jump (hopefully by Christmas :)) So in researching razors i have become interested in honing my own once I get them, but before i get there I'd like to practice.
Our kitchen knifes need to be resharpened (Block of Farberware) and I have pocket knifes, fixed bladed knifes, hunting knifes and so on that I'd like to sharpen myself.
I was thinking about getting a King 1K and 6K to start with, or maybe a Norton 4/8. I thought that I might need something a little lower like the 1k. Maybe both..lol? ( I'll probably end up with HAD...I already have SAD, BAD, RAD!) I think I've read that they are good hones, but figured I'd ask the experts. Sorry if this is in the wrong place/forum, but everyone here seems super knowledgeable.
Thanks!
