Thanked: 0Wanting to self hone
i bought a couple razors, one is mostly sharp and the other somewhat sharp. i have experience sharpening knives so i suppose i should be able to hone a razor, or am i fooling myself? anyway, i'd like to hone a razor, and i've tried to read through the FAQs but its just a mass of information. im supposed to pick a razor on my honing style which was taught to me by grandfather and uncle so i suppose traditional. if 8000 is fine grit, and that's about the finisher, what grit should i use to get a moderately sharp razor up to that level? all of these hones on this site seem to be out of my price range, where can i get a good quality low price hone, and any brand recommendations? if anybody has found a hone that would be somewhat forgiving, or a good combo, please point me in the right direction. thank you.
