Its a good job you chimed in, that could have been embarrassing ha
Yes I would like it honed so its good to use, I will have a go myself in the future but for now I will leave it to a pro.
Celtic crusader, Im guessing thats his username, I will have a look thank you.

Hey!

Welcome, you'll find a very friendly and helpful forum here, looking forward to some shots once it's all cleaned up

Correct guess, thats his forum name

I'd just like to give you all an update. Upon recommendation from you guys I sent my razor off to celticcrusader to get honed. It arrived back today looks lovely. I must add he cleaned up the razor for me too as well as honing. Im very excited to try it out but as I shaved this morning I will have to try tomorrow.

looks nice, i would wait until the evening to shave, you will want plenty of time, allow an hour, you will get some change but dont expect it to be fast, dont forget that you will need time to make and apply your lather, and clean both yourself and razor up at the end, strop etc.
you will get quicker, but going slow until you get through the initial learning, beyond complacent to competent is worth while taking your time.
