Thread: Ode to the Barber Hone

No lapping, clogging or need to soak

Just a coat of lather and a light stroke

Of all finishers I have tried, my favourite stone

Is my trusty little barber hone

With just one stroke,
of an angle too high;
Your edge rolls over,
then kiss it good-bye.

Haaaaa!!!!! Too funny.

You must now start over on a lower grit
Be careful this time you clumsy twit

As a Newbie ponders his new hobby and dreams,
he's been told, "Barber hone & cheap strop is all you need."
He lathers his face with boar brush & cream,
as the blade rolls down, he lets out a scream.

For the purposes of this thread,
Given what has already been said,
May I suggest that all commentary
Be posted in the form of poetry?
