Way to go, Lynn Abrams!
I subscribe to your honing videos and my razors are sharp and face soft as a baby's behind. They're tuned up to a tee!

Double thumbs up!
I'm a hobbyist and that does have some advantages, but the best way to be the best honer is sheer repitition, IOW lots and lots of practice. Lynn and Glenn get a lot of practice and when they talk, it's best to listen.
Cheers, Steve

I wonder how many people Lynn has helped with his videos, probably thousands. Glenn's videos are a delight, as much for his personality as for his excellent honing advice.

These two have been my go to for videos when I first started out honing.
I actually watched Glenns video on honing a smiling wedge today since it had been a while and was honing one for a friend. Very good knowledge from both.

Beyond the videos, there's a number of us who owe him a a much deeper debt of gratitude for personal instruction. Lynn is a true gentleman and I'm honored to have had the opportunity to learn a few things from him.

Aloha!
Great thread gentlemen. And agreed. Lynn is the best. I studied his vids (along with Glenn's and others) for about two weeks before I put blade to stone. In cases like this, Youtube is priceless indeed. You basically have a master of the art in your home showing you how to do it.
BTW, I love Sushi and don't mind a good cigar once in a while, with some good Bourbon. If I don't get to Lynn, he's welcome to come to Hawaii. We have GREAT sushi here!
