Just wanted to say thanks to heavydutysg135 for making these videos. I was having a lot of trouble honing until I watched them. It all seemed hit-or-miss, but I'm convinced now that not spending enough time setting my bevel was the problem.

RESPECT. DUE.

This is a frightningly awesome tutorial and I learned LOADS from the vids.

Sadly videos 5 onwards are no longer available on youtube so i'll never find out what happened....

Starting out with a straight razor is like losing your virginity. You build up the anticipation, want it to be the best in the world and 9 times out of 10 get let down. In time you will learn that practice improves your technique.

And lets face it- in both cases, practice is half the fun

Default THANKS!

I want to thank David for this great tutorial, it has provided me with the basic fundamentals of honing and has bought me great success, from the very beginning.

Thanks again David, for your time and effort to put together this tutorial. And thanks to the others, whom also helped make this possible.

After shaving for a week with the razor that you honed and sent me I can say with confidence that you definately have the honing thing down. Great job I am going to get it back to you as soon as I can, but my work schedule has not allowed me to get to the post office yet.
