    Thumbs up Monday Honing Session at the barbershop

    We had another honing session at the Wyomissing (PA ) Barbershop Monday.

    Josh - wyobarbershop
    Rob - rbaker2778
    Jerry - mrsell63

    Josh did numerous test shaves.
    Rob honed his Butch Harner French Point w/burl scales.
    Also we talked about honing a smiling blade. It was a fun day
    and we accomplished a lot.

    I totally lucked out today! I picked up some great tips and got to shave with Jerry and Robs razors! Seriously, I shaved with 6 different razors including Dorko, BBrown, Omega, Union Cut, and W&B!

    Good,times, good folks! Thanks guys!

    P.S. Gotta love my pose, shaving ATG with a chopper and No lather.

    Josh, would have liked to have sat in on that honing fest.
    If you guys get together again, give me a heads up.
    Nothing like inviting myself, eh? LOL

    I'll tell you what, you can sit home all day and do your thing with razors but when you can arrange a get-together with several guys who think like you do as far as razors are concerned, there is nothing but fun and comaraderie headed your way. Go talk to your local barbers and see how they feel about straight razors. Make friends with those guys and get-togethers will happen automatically.

    The end result is worth the effort.
