Thread: Advice needed - Barbers hone

Hi chaps,

Well i received my 1st hone through the post this week (after waiting for 4 weeks which seemed more like 4 years). I purchased via ebay and i went for a barbers hone as i want to maintain the edge (All new purchases or major issues will be sent to someone who knows what they are doing!!!).

The seller advised that the hone hasnt had much use. As ive nothing to compare the quality of my hone to or experience in using a hone i thought id ask what you guys think and if you can give me any tips. Id really appreciate your input.

Here are the pics (ive taken some with the flash on so you can see what the surface looks like better)
