Hello, been using straights for a couple years now and wanted to try my hand honing my own. Does anyone know of any available books about the complete process of honing? While threads here are helpful and members have answered questions, its really not the best way for me to learn something. Not too fond of video's either. I want to read, digest, try, re-read. I can add in/experiment what other people are doing after i learn from one person’s perspective.
Already trashed a few razors and feel like im at point where just sending them out is the better option. Ive found a few people who have delivered great edges. I can maintain on diamond balsa or a finisher and if i particular razor requires all kinds of gymnastics to use balsa/finisher, ill get rid of it and try another.
Hell, im not even opposed to paying someone for lessons.
Thanks if anyone can suggest some reading material.
