    The Bester 1200 is a great bevel setter for knives and razors, and can be the only stone you need for kitchen knives. And it will introduce you to the wonderful world of water stones.

    There are several good hone meisters listed in the classifieds and any one of them will get the edge shave ready. I suggest you get another razor, send one to get honed and one you work on your honing skills with. That way you have a blade you know is shave ready and what to aim for when your working at it.

    You mentioned that you have tried sharpening knives, do you have any stones currently or do you need to get a new set?
