Thread: Honing in Brisbane - Recommendations?

Hi guys,

I just moved to Brisbane and need a (fairly new) razor sharpened up.
Can anyone recommend me a honemeister in Brisbane (or Oz with a quick turnaround)?

Alternately, is it just worth getting my hands on a stone and learning for myself?
Cheers!

Thanks Bombay. I know about the ads, though (there's only one for Australia). I guess I'm looking for recommendations/advice rather than adverts...

Post the razor to os, express both ways will take a day each end, and costs $10 instead of standard for $6 which will take 3 to 5 days each way. Os turns razors round pretty quickly in my experience, and is a really helpful feller.

No problem, I know what you'll be doing tomorrow.

Jimbo is closer. He's at Malaney. But Os would have been my next recommendation based on distance. I can vouch for edges from both those Gents. Either way you can't go wrong. I do my own now, and when you get the shave about right, I recommend that you learn the art of honing and become self sufficient.
