    Greetings gents.

    Finally getting around to this. My name is Niko and I'm about a month in to straight razors. I am loving every shave regardless of nicks or cuts as it isn't just about the shave. Anyway, I'm hoping you guys can help me find a local hone meister so I don't need to send out my razor and wait weeks on end. I'm in the Virginia beach area. Thanks.

    Welcome Niko, glad you're enjoying your straights! I believe Mainaman is in VA. Take a look in the classifieds under member services...

    I can personally recommend Stefan (aka, maniaman). You won't be disappointed.

    Welcome to SRP. As already mentioned check the member services section in classifieds for some help with honing. I don't personally hone my razors "yet". I eventually plan to though. For now I have a 8 straight rotation an a large number of DE's. I have found that when one needs honed having the others takes the place till the work is complete. Either way good luck an hope you find a mentor locally.
