    There are a lot of folks in the NC area that can assist. Send me a PM if you have any questions. I'm in the Raleigh area, but there are folks all over the state.

    Honing your razor and giving tips. We just had a meet up this past Sat. We get together and talk about straights and other topics.

    Factory razors have as much chance of being optimally shave ready as a factory Toyota has the chance to be blue printed & balanced before delivery.

    That's why I like Straight Razor Designs and the classifieds here at SRP. You know if they say 'shave ready' they mean it!

    I have purchased three razors, two from SRD, and one from the classifieds here, and all three came perfectly honed. I also notice that the members offering razors for sale in the classifieds all have 100% positive feedback. It's hard to beat 100%. (except for politicians)

    Yeah if there is someone that is a lot closer to me that I can send my straight to be honed that would be better than having to wait for all the turn around time.
