I've heard Val from the Gentleman's Den does good work. There are also a lot of members who can put a wicked edge on a blade that aren't considered professionals. Many of their edges on par with the "professionals".
Good luck.

Thanked: 4827For unknown reasons I thought you were in Vancouver. I am willing to bet that there are several members in Ontario that could fix you up if need be. Failing that there are also a few in the west that could also get your edge undoubtedly shave ready. I have used Phil at Classic Edge and his blades are nice to shave with. We have several very active member in that province, it is just a matter of getting in touch with them. You could PM MikeB52 or HarryWally they are there and will certainly be in the loop. The greater TO meet is a good plan if you can make it.
It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!

Thanked: 4206As all above have relied, Phil at classic edge, Val in TO, and a few members themselves having learned from the above are pretty adept honemeisters. The Aug 20 GTG in Orangeville is always a great way to get some hands on experience as well, as Colin mentioned.
Good luck and safe shaves."Depression is just anger,, without the enthusiasm."
