Thread: First razor

I just bought my first straight edge from an antique dealer for $12 and I am looking for somebody in the Hawaiian islands that can hone and buff it to shave ready state. I've been reading the forums and articles for a while and finally decided to join once I got a razor, felt like I could join the club now haha. If anybody has any additional info about the razor please let me know, I don't know a lot about it at all. Thanks!

Very nice razor! I would buy another hundred just like that one for $12.

I think you have a Henckels. Check out the Henckels section here...

Go to the classifieds section of the forum, click on member services, and you'll see a list of members who offer honing services. Send a few PM's (private messages) to some of those members and then decide who to send it out to. That will probably be the easiest way to get your razor honed.

Thanks for the tip steel, just sent off an email.

That is a terrific razor, very nice. I hope youcan find someone near you.

Nice Henckels, you done good. Shouldn't take much to get it in top shaving condition.
