    How often do you find you need to hone your razors?

    Recently it seems like every shave 'cuz I'm unsatisfied with the edges.
    When they are in good trim, I probably get about a month of shaves out of each.

    I have alot of razors so as long as I keep rotating them I rarely have to hone but after the Grand Experiment as I recall I got about 12 shaves doing 30 passes on the strop and about 20 doing 60 passes.
