I tried that one Dave. He just said no. He would rather not. He doesnt do shaves any more so he is out of practice.

Being in the US Barber don't use Straights.
But I talked a lot with my barber about them. He has been doing hair with scissors for over 50 years. He says he went to barber school, not beauty...

Thanks guys. Im healing. All is going well acording to the PT and OT people. I just needed some hone therapy.

Been a while but my hand and shoulder were feeling good today so I decided to hone up 3 razors.

Ern 170 finished on a Zulu Grey. I hadn't used this stone in a few years.

Tiny bevel that...

The wedge must be glued in also or that pinning would show a spread. It's a nice look but also a giveaway of glue used. IMO.

I'm a lurker around these parts most of the time. This has be one interesting reading lately. I enjoy my 20k and I got my feet wet when it comes to the Jnats with the help of Steve. But the 20k rules...

Melting Whiskers! I love it. Nice one Jamie.

How is that bamboo sink tool working for ya? It sure has a nice look.

The 20 is a fine finisher and i do enjoy it. But my Jnat journey is turning out to be a lot of fun. Just fine tuning now.

Im in this world too. My wife always asks how many razors im go to use this time.

Thats a small bevel. Cant even see it in the pics.

Nice stone. I like how it is stamped on the side.

Last night i used a blade i hadnt used in a year. Smooth shave. Went back to my log and checked and found i had honed it on the Zulu. Too bad I didnt make notes back then like i do today on how i...

I think I need to believe harder!

Thats why I have 2 of the green bricks. But hey, a hone with my name on it... Maybe i should buy one of those Kings. :rofl2:

Thanks Aaron. Its kinda like that. When i get the time i close the door to my room and dig in. Not sure how many hours i spent that day but a few were eBay buys and needed a start from scratch. A fun...

FINALLY!
I get some time.
So I'm honing like a Mad Dog.
And having a cold one.
Been a while for both so I just wanted too.

I agree. I bet it would make a great poster picture for a shave den.

Good looking and sized stone.

Thanks for the comment on the 8k glass HC. Anyone else have a comment about this? Just thinking about the future. Dam HAD!

BTW, ive read about the 10k stones crazing, but not the snow white.

Have you compared this glass 8k to a Snow White 8k? Or has anyone?

Let hear about the scissors Tom. I think i might want to give this a try some day.

:rofl2:
Not me. I know he is a little off.

I was trying to figure this all out. German blades get x. Sweedes get y. American get ....

But now i got more finishers than i planed on having so...

I agree Tom. But im still trying to listen to them to learn what they want.

If were showing rocks...

But that pic is last year. A few more in the group now. Out of spaces for them.

Feeling a bit better now so i thought some honing my help to make me feel more normal. Here is 4 i put on the stones. BTW, Tom that "odd mother" took an edge fairly easy. Still have no clue as to...
