    Neat collection. Where did you find them?

    I have the same Keen Kutter hone and would like to hear your experienced opinions.

    So far I have honed the True Edge razor. I am a great fan of the 8k edge so I stopped at the 8k. Stropped the edge and went back and did 10 more no pressure strokes on a freshly lapped 8k with fresh tape. Stropped again and Bingo. And I mean Bingo. What a beautiful no stubble shave.

    And then I lapped the blue Shumate Barber hone which is smaller in dimension than other barber hones. I did the back side only and the shade of blue is magnificent. I chamfered all four edges, however I have not had a chance to touch-up a blade as yet. Tomorrow is touch-up day................

    I am wondering if there is anyone else who has a "KEEN EDGE" barber hone. I have a Grevemeyer Keen edge razor that I restored and it shaves quite well. I would like to know if Grevemyer made the Keen Edge barber hone.
