Thread: Honing cost inflation.

Off topic , then you will hate us down here it's 1.79 today at the Shell station, when I worked I hated cheap oil prices as right now most of the drilling rigs are stacked out right now, but I guess it's all relative. Tc. Somebody has to win and somebody losses , Jimmy at that rate you will need to turn out at least 2 wedges a week

Paid $1.75 a gallon today. I flashed back to the 1980s, Gave the guy a $20 and had to go back in for the change.
Maybe if we send our straights to China we can get them done for $5 a blade.
Aint my style wont ever be.
What is a craftsmans Time and tools worth?? A good reputation is priceless. Combined all those factors.
What about IF Lynn and Glenn get carpal tunnel after all those blades?
Give a man a fish feed him for a day.....
You decide the price of poles and lures.

I charge based on how much I like the person who wants the hone. I might also discount it if I really enjoy the test shave

Okay, okay, I'm considering it ......... only brand new complicated razors though and no wedges ............
