Thanked: 1Just want to say thanks to Lynn Abrams
So I got some new razors and they were nowhere near ready to shave with. I went to the local stogie shop (they sell wet-shaving supplies as well) and they pointed me to a guy who could hone my razors for 10 bones a pop; not too bad. 20 bucks every couple months or so is not a big deal. But I am moving to a small town for college soon, about an hour and a half away from my home-city... I'm not driving back and forth to have my razors honed (twice for a 3-5 day wait on my razors!), So I considered doing it myself...
Then I watched Lynn Abrams honing razors and I thought man, I could do that. Picked up a 220/1k, a 4k/8k (both norton), a flattening stone, and a Naniwa 12k. I started right away. It was kind of silly at first; they were more sharp, but not very impressive by any means. I watched Mr. Abrams over and over and decided to just keep at it.
It has only been about six times now and all of the three razors I started with pass the hanging hair test with ease. I compared them directly to razors that I received in the mail after they had seen a professional hone and mine are just as sharp! I'm pretty stoked about it and I am happy that those videos were so freely provided. What a help!
I'm so happy that I'm going to see my doctor about some hair growth inducing creams so that I can shave more often! I used to have shaving, now I look forward to it. So BIG THANKS to Mr. Abrams for the videos and the help, I really appreciate it.
