Thread: Irish honers

Not sure if this is the right section to ask, so admin please feel free to move.

Is there any irish honers out there? Or anyone that knows one, that would be great

Thanks in advance

Ross

I'm Irish (descendant) and I Hone! Sorry, could not resist! Good luck finding someone up there. Double O (like O'Neill)

Best wishes. I'm Kilkenny descendant but live in the States. Hope you find a local that can show you the ropes. Noting beats honing your own blades. It's not that hard.

Ross,
I'm Irish as well, based in Kildare! I know Liam in the Waldorf hones razors, he's pretty much honed all of mine. Its on Westmoreland Street, near the bus stops, that'd probably be your best bet!
Hope that helps.

Based in Kildare myself Bren, thanks for that... any idea what he charges?? Chris from Shave.ie said he would be my best bet alright

Sorry bren i was being lazy lol.. just made the call

I assume you are happy with the service from Liam and quality of the work>?

I have no complaints whatsoever about Liam's work. I think it was about 20 euros for a razor, slightly more if there was any damage to it.
The razors I got back from Liam shaved perfectly.

great thats made my mind up now... i was boarding on staying Shavette ( feather ) cos i didnt have anyone near by to hone ( until i pick the equipment and try it myself )

Working in Town so it will be handy for when it needs doing.

Thanks again

I reserve my shavette for when I'm in a lazy mood :L I have a naniwa 12 k that I use to touch up my razors, but generally they've already been honed by Liam.
Good luck anyway
