Hone Question
I would like to purchase a hone for only touching up shave ready razors. What kind of hone should I be looking for and more importantly where do I look?

I think a nice barber hone is perfect for this

where to buy..Well there is the classifieds here and ebay.
If you do not see one posted that you like in the classifieds, i would post a WTB and see if one of the friendly members with stockpile of barber hones will be willing to part with one.

+1 on what Ben says and if you get it out of the classifieds you're more likely to get one that has been lapped. That is a good thing.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

I got a nice 3 line swaty from a member that was lapped and ready to go, and a pasted balsa strop from the same gentleman. I'm good to go!
