My friend, I think that what you are suggesting is exactly what I'd insinuated by saying that I waited over a year before attempting to learn to hone as I was able to compare how I was doing compared to others. All of the razors I'd purchased came shave ready, however once I'd sent a razor to our mutual friend GSSIXGUN then I knew how I was doing and on that particular razor I'd asked him to use exactly the same set up as I had and Not to use Any Pasted strops.

Once I gave the razor a go I found that I was holding my own! At least on 'that razor'

When I got my 6/8 Revisor I didn't know that you could ask for custom honing. With that said, the edge I got wasn't bad at all, after honing it was GREAT!
