    Default American Hone Company.....

    Here are a few pics I took June 7 when I visited the American Hone Company. They are no longer making hones but still had a few pieces of equipment left. This is the lapping plate they used.....

    yeah I am, but I only post on special news like this one...

    kidding, of course... I still use the straight razor, but rarely visit the forums... between the kid at home and the 2 jobs, not much time really...

    just this morning I used one of my favorite razors that Randy gave to me, a huge Belgian one, reground to 6/8's with custom mahogany scales... sweet


    cheers guys, and always nice to read you too!

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Too cool, Randy! Thanks for sharing.... I assume you own it now, so you'd better bring it to the next meet!
