I have 7 Friodurs that all hone and shave well. I also have a Dovo with MOP scales, but have not used it because 1 piece MOP is now pretty much unavaiable and I do not want to risk breaking the scales. You should do fine starting with a shave ready razor. I enjoy not having to worry about staining and rust given reasonable razor care.

You won't be able to tell the difference shaving.
Sometimes stainless may take few more laps on the hone. Nothing excessive though.No matter how many men you kill you can't kill your successor-Emperor Nero
