Hi gents,
I just got my first clasic razor a month ago. Fortunately I was in a business trip next to Solingen and got a DOVO Pearlex 5/8, carbon steel.
I asked the seller if I need, besides the strop, also a hone. He said, the strop should last me like 20 years. Is this reasonable?
What are you're experienced opinion about honing?
How can I recognize when I should hone?
At a normal shave (once/2 days) after how much time do I need to hone?
Thanks.
