Thanked: 0getting the razor shave-ready
I recently got a Dovo hollow ground straight razor. After looking up instructional videos and stropping with a filly strop, i still felt the razor tugging at the beard as i shave. As the razor was only honed in factory, i'm guessing it needs to be touched up to be shave ready. Would a finishing stone (10-12) grit suffice or would i need to use different/ multiple hones to get the razor shave-ready? Could anyone recommend a good hone for the job that wouldn't break the wallet? Any advice is appreciated!
