First step on the road, baby!
Sweet!
My Norton came in the mail today.
I am so psyched.
I'm going to dig into one of my practice razors right after dinner if the kids'll give me the chance. Maybe I'll have to set them in front of the TV, the "flickering blue god", for some babysitting.
Just in time too, I don't think my pasted strop was going to do it for much longer.
It gives me a lot of confidence knowing you guys are here to help me out, thanks all.

Todd,
Now you've got something to do during those long Wisconsin winter nights. Is the snow flying yet?
Cheers,
Ed (an Alabama transplanted Yankee...I do miss the snow and cold of Chicago winters...NOT!)

Todd, make sure you lap the hone and also round off the edges a bit. 1000grit wet sandpaper should do it.

Hey Firestart, thanks. I managed to miss all the previous posts and the instructions that came with the stone. Idiocy or childish glee, who knows. Originally Posted by FiReSTaRT
