Question about honing stones
On Lynn's dvd he hones a razor on a small, hand held barber hone. My understanding is that this keeps the edge keen after the initial sharpening of a new or restored razor. Then he goes on to show honing with a Norton 4k/8k, then the Belgian yellow coticle stone.
My question is this: Lynn honed my razor and I've been using it for a couple of weeks. It shouldn't need sharpening for quite a while. Will using a small barber hone keep the edge indefinately or will I eventually have to go the Norton/Belgian honing route.
