If you look here you will see Wolfpack somewhere in California, I'm sure a quick PM will establish something more specific, Max is in Vegas, 10pups is also somewhere in southern California and if you wait a bit one of them might reply in this thread or PM you, but don't hesitate to shoot out PM's
Still hoping for someone in my area ;-(
Zfan4life I am in San Diego but unfortunately I just got my first hones (today) and I would not be comfortable with honing or teaching as I am just starting. If you PM me I can tell you who I use. Its like a 3 day turn around and you will never get a sharper/More useable razor (not in San Dog). Also Avenolpey (member name) is in the area so you might want to ask him who he uses or if he has a local guy.
Your two days away (via priority mail) from all the great honers in the country.
Yea...that may be what I do...but I would like to see someone local so.i can look how they do it and learn
Some good info, quite a tome:)
Before taking the plunge, have you had much time shaving? Truly you should learn to shave then hone. If you need to send your razor out a time or two until you get a grip on shaving. Hopefully by that time there will be a meet up that you can attend. I'm pretty sure that 10pups has regular mini meets with three to five people there. When you do take the plunge I recommend you use quality, inexpensive razors, without geometry issue that you know will take an edge. There are good razors that go through here regularly in the $30-50 that would work just fine, and most of those start shave ready, giving you a working razor in the meantime.
I sent PMs :<0) Love to help out.
Angel stadium is about 75 miles north of me that's a bit far...but if I mail I'll send to you
