Given the number of horror stories I read here, I don't get a warm fuzzy feeling when I hear about someone getting their razors honed in a "shop." Too often that involves a grindstone and a ruined or at least dull razor. The fact that they didn't get it right the first time means their ability is questionable at best. You might want to let someone else hone it for you.

The fact that you can shave with a shavette suggests to me that, no it's not you. I'd like to make sure you get off to a good start with a real razor. I'll hone it for you for the price of return postage. If you're interested, just send me a PM.
Its stuff like this that makes this online community shine.
