Hey, guys!
I just finished my very first straight razor shave (no pink soap!), and found it to be a bit disappointing, as it didn't really shave at all. I'm suspecting that my new Timor Blue Steel doesn't have an "out-of-the-box" edge suitable for shaving. How can I tell if it's sharp enough? I don't have access to a microscope, and was also wondering if anybody had any tips on honing (including good stones to buy).
Thanks!
Jay
