Thanked: 3795I don't know if it is still the case, but they used to use a guy who started out here as a 23 year old beginner who after a few months claimed "decades" of experience and "thousands" of razors honed so I'll let you draw your own conclusion.
If you want more information feel free to PM me.

I would suggest a Google search using that business name and the term 'banned'

They are not what I would call reliable, we have much better persons here who can do it right. So take this advise. Tc

Thanked: 315Alschepis, I've always had good experiences with the gentlemen here on SRP. I've had two blades honed by gssixgun (along with other work) and just recently sent one to Utopian for honing.

I won't say my first SR related deal with someone on another forum was bad, but it left a lot to be desired.

Thanked: 292If you are looking for someone in the Phoenix area, you might want to check out A Sharper Razor.
Straight Razor Sharpening and Restoration Service | ASR.
The company is associated with Wet Shaving Products (WSP) in Chandler. That company specializes in shaving brushes, soaps, aftershaves, etc. but sells a variety of shaving products. I love their Formula T line of soaps and also have one of their Extra-Dense High Mountain White Badger brushes.
My first razor was a Gold Dollar 800 that I got "shave ready" from WSP. Lee did a great job honing the razor.
