I have a DOVO that Lynn honed for me last month with great results. He pointed out some mistakes that I had made honing it and that really helped with honing my other razors. I first want to say a big public thanks to Lynn for his time and help.
The DOVO gave me really good shaves when I got it back. A friend at work wanted to try straight shaving so I let him borrow it. He bought a strop and I showed him proper stropping technique. He used it for a couple weeks and returned it bragging about great shaves. When I tried to shave with it tonight it just scraped the lather off not cutting anything. Stropping and strop pastes havn't brought the edge back.
I have never touched up a razor only honed to shaving from dead dull. What is the best progress; start with my 8K norton, or should I start with the 4K and work through my 12K. All help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks Chris
