Thread: I Need The Experts! I'm Cofused

All jokes aside I was really doing this just to have fun. I hope no one gets mad.

Thanks for the video. I can't watch it though lol I have Hughes net out here in the country and something to do with Fair access policy. Any how thanks I will try to watch it

hehehe Same here Gen 4 is way better then Gen 3 if you haven't changed

No reason for anyone getting mad, this is a key issue and one that needs to be brought to the attention of a lot of straight razor honers out there especially new guys. There is a lot of info about straight razor shaving, especially honing and sometimes new guys can be overwhelmed (I know I was) with the info, blunt edges and the light test is just one more situation they will face. Thanks for bringing it up, it is an issue sometimes forgotten.........

Watching this video is a big help to understanding what blunting is and what the light test consist of. I had a time honing a razor a while back and didn't understand the problem and wasn't really sure what blunting meant or looked like. Watching this video brought it all to light and with some adjustment it wasn't long I had that problem razor shaving great.

I have the old 7000 hughes net , and the isn't parts for it anymore. I repaired it myself with guess what ........TAPE ! To keep a lizard out

I still need help I see more advice given out that makes me want to ask questions. Where do I ask them ? Do I open a new post ? Is it okay to ask them ! lol

I have no idea what's going on in this thread.. ?

If you have questions I would ask them its the only way to learn. For now I would keep it in this thread. Unless you have a very specific question about something your trying to do.

As to why you see the same answers from guys with high post counts and/or long time members it is because we all took different paths to learning but came to find many of the same results.
