Thread: Honing Videos

For those of us that will likely never have a chance to spend time with a honemeister is there a video that might be helpful regarding keeping a straight razor sharp? Thank you.

I have some issues with his technique but this is sortof helpful. We can discuss after you view it...

I think I may actually prefer this one...note the trueing of the hone, very important step for a USED Norton...

Thanks AF. I appreciate it.

Look in the help files under video's and honing. There are several animations and gifs available. Be sure and use only the pressure that is necessary to keep the blade flat on the hone, pressure evenly distributed, and the blade absolutely flat on the hone.

Hope this helps,
