Thanked: 0Hello From Ontario
Hello all,
From south western Ontario Canada and new to straight shaving. Recently purchased an A. Witte Gold Bug and a Dovo Master's that are both used.
I shaved with the Master's yesterday and it was OK but I think it needs to be honed.
Anyone know of someone that hones locally between Kitchener and London?
I'm excited to use this site as a wealth of information to the new hobby I am starting.
Cheers

Thanked: 3222Welcome to the forum. There are quite a few guys in southern Ontario that belong to this forum and they may have some answers about your honing need. I have personally had Phil at Classicedge do some honing for me and he did a very good job of it. You can check out Honing if you like.
