    Don't know about master honer, but I do hone all my own razors now for two years. I love the Arkansas True Hard group of stones. I use regular baby oil. All my edges are great and shaves beautimus. The oil cleans up easily with Dawn dish washing soap.

    BTW, baby oil: $0.99 for 32 oz at Walmart. I exaggerate, but baby oil is cheap, and works well.

    A little advice: Don't impede an 80,000 lbs. 18 wheeler tanker carrying hazardous chemicals.

    Give you that BBS smell too! sorry couldnt resist!
    Ive been using Norton honing oil which is basically clear mineral oil for awhile, bought a quart some time back, guess I'll stick with that until it runs out!
    Thanks all for the input!
