Anybody who can hone in NYC?
My razor seems to be getting dull everytime I shave. I strop it and nothing. I looked at it under light and it seems like it has a ding mark or 2. I don't remember ever hitting it. Anybody that can help me out?

SRP if full of excellent honers including honemeisters Lynn and Glenn . But if you limit your search to NYC there is no better than Bayamontate. Nelson in the King of NYC.

If you feel like taking a drive of about 90mins or so, we are having a small informal meetup in PA on 11/23. There is no guarantee of experience honemeisters there but there will be people with hones an honing experience. Just a thought. Shoot me a pm for details

Where in PA? If it's anywhere near Emmaus I may take the drive and visit my favorite beer distributor.

At the Cigars International in Hamburg. It is 30 miles West of Emmaus. Straight shot out the turnpike. The manager knows people are coming, and going to be honing razors in the place. If you have never been there, it is a two story mecca for cigar purchasing and smoking, complete with gigantic TV's, a bar, attractive waitresses, etc. To my knowledge, the only thing they don't have is food, but there is a BBQ place and a Red Robin in the same parking lot. It is also in the same complex as Cabella's which is a must see if you are a hunter or fisherman.

That store is a fantastic place. I was just there last weekend and I drive by there every day going to work.
