    Default Victory is mine!

    Had the trifecta of success today. Full face SR with no nicks and with a blade I honed myself.

    Congrats. Awesome feeling. My absolute favorite razor is one I rescaled myself, honed myself, and is without a double the smoothest shaver I have. Love that Karnak.

    Congrats! I've just recently been getting good edges on my own (even though I've been honing off and on for a couple months now). The edges were passable at best before, and only in the last two sessions have I ended up with something close to the shave ready I've received from others. No pull when going through the tough chin hairs!

    Way to go, sir. I'm right behind you and can't wait to shave off of my first honed razor.

    I have been using the same Vitory Hone since 1964. My father had it before I did, and it is the fastest edge sharpiner I have.

    Now that is impressive, i am guessing that is a Barber hone?
