Hello, fellow straight razor lovers.
I just joined this site and wanted to reach out to fellow straight users. I have been using a straight for about ten years. I am in the early stages of Honeing my own blades. Got tired of having someone doing what I should be dong. It has been a learning curve let me tell you.
I started honing my own straights about two months ago and have been getting a less then happy blade. It keeps getting better but just not right. I have been looking for anyone in the Akron, Ohio area who is a mentor or could give a hand in helping to get my honing skills to a higher level.
