Bare Minimum for Honing your own razor?
I'm new to STR8 razor shaving. I recently purchased a DOVO 6/8 Tortoise Scale razor and strop from SRD.
I've been reading about honing and I know eventually I would like to maintain my own razors.
From what I've read it seems like I would need just a Norton 4K / 8K.
But the more I read, the more I learn but it is somewhat cofusing with all the different types of hones, stones , lapping etc.
I want to start out with basics and build up from there.
What is the bare minimum of equipment that I would need to be good to go?
This thread has a ton of really good info

I was reading this thread again the other day and can't belive the amount of info in here... ps: it only starts with the Naniwa stones then branchs into much much more...
