Thanked: 0Calgary Area Honing
I have aquired a vintage razor and wish to start my straight razor shaving journey with it. However I would like to have someone hone it/inspect it before I do anything with it. Is there any person or shop who offer good honing services in the Calgary and surrounding areas? Thanks

It seems that there are just a couple Canadian mentors/honers registered in our Library.
There are many more out there, I'm sure.
Try sending one of the Canadians in the Library list of local help, a PM.
I'm sure one of them could point you in the right direction.Bjoernar
Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

The name of the place escapes me, but I recall a thread sometime around Christmas about someone finding a small B&M store in Calgary.

Knifewear in Inglewood. Reviews seem mixed based on a forum search, but might be a decent baseline.

Thanked: 43I could help you out if you are interested. I am not a "professional" honemeister but I have had good feedback from others in the area about my edges.
