    Default Honing A Straight With The Hirlatron 3000

    Hello Guys,
    Here's a honing device that has just recently hit the market. I've used it extensively on my straight razors with great results.

    It's known as the Hirlatron 3000, a state of the art honing machine that covers everything from setting bevels to the fine finish of a majestic coticule.

    In the hands of an experienced honemeister like myself, no razor is a problem; from smiling razors, frowning razors & even 8/8 Monsters that Phrank & Wullie use (That's what the "Chop" mode is for).

    It comes with 220, 440 & 1500 grit honing sheets. All you need to bring your razor to shave ready status.

    Don't miss out on the opportunity to own one. I can't advertise them for sale here, as I'm not a vendor, but I do know the CEO of the corporation and can put in a good word for you.

    Thank you !!

    Can you set it up so you can drop an Ebay razor in that tube on the top and get it restored and rescaled?

    How do you lap it or is it self lapping? Can the grits be expanded up to 80K? Is it compatible with European electrical systems? With an adapter, can it be used to power a Delorean with clean fusionable fuel?
