Welcome to SRP!
Yes it will need to be honed. The razors from AoS only have the factory edge and are pretty rough.
Put your location into your profile and hopefully somebody nearby can help you out.
You can also check in the classifieds of this site under member services and find a honer. I think the typical cost is around $25 which is a lot cheaper than buying all of the stones.
Make sure you check out the beginner's tips in the Library as well and feel free to ask us any questions that you may have.
