Thread: Beginning to get why honemeisters charge extra for wedges...

Thanks guys for all the tips and encouragement, Ill be taking another stab at it this evening and most likely a chunk of time a night until I get this sucker done. Ill be sure to keep you guys posted on the progress and come back for help as needed.

wow, much better results today! the bevel must have been close from yesterday because it took me less than an hour to pass the marker test and pop hair. The 6k side, and barbers homes followed and then 200 laps on leather. I have to say it could still get much better but it did shave the stubble off my face without cuts or bad burn. Thanks again to all those who gave me pointers it helped a lot.

Nice when it works out, isn't it?

Yes it is, and a wee bit addicting, its just regrettable it was the only project I had out here. Though it sounds like I may have a half a dozen or more new projects when I stop by the barbers next as he still claims he has boxes of razors that won't shave any more. he agreed to sell a few to me on the cheap and possibly more if I can get them back into fighting shape
