Have fun and don't dwell on any one razor too long. If one gives you twubble, put it down until tomorrow.

Enjoy!

Thanks for the advice. When I started a few months back, I set aside some vintage razors with (what seemed to me) sound blades for my "honing projects." I did a couple and now have about 4 in process, in parallel. Likely not the best plan, but once I have the stone all saturated with water it seems logical to take each razor through that stone. Plus I practice using the various tests for each stone.

It's fun, and it's fun shaving with a razor I've honed. I feel like I'm reviving a bit of history.
