Thanked: 0Don't know what I got
I am new to this forum and was hoping to get a little assistance. I acquired my grandfather's razors, hones and strop. I don't know exactly how old everything is but I am guessing at least 50+ years based on my mother's memory. The razors I have sent out to be refurbished (and I will post pics in the proper forum when they come back) but I need some help identifying the hones. The only information on the hones are brand names. There is no grit info - so Im not sure how to tell what I can/can't use these stones for. The names on the hones is Sextoblade, Norton and Carborandum (on the box not the blade). Here are some pics. Also, I understand that I will not be honing any time soon. Once I get the razors back they should have a shaving edge on them - I am just looking for info on these and whether they are usable. Any help/suggestions is greatly appreciated. Also, I will post pictures of the strop in the proper forum with similar questions.
Thanks.
