But in line with the principle of keeping things simple, don't feel that you need to rush into honing. There are plenty of pros who can take care of that for you while you focus on your prep and shaving technique. They don't charge much, but using their services will ensure that your blade stays nicely shave-ready so that you can focus on the other stuff.

When you do decide to start honing, see if there is someone local who can show you the ropes. You'll learn more in an hour or two with a mentor than you will in days of watching videos and reading about it!


yes I have seen many videos and read many post and its still confusing just as I think I am getting the grasp of it some one throws a extra comment or link and throws me for a loop. I will have to find a local mentor to show me the in and outs. I do love the SR shave I get and want to be able to hone my own and keep bSR sharp sounds simple enough right LOL I thought so until I started reading and seen videos THANK YOU AGIAN
