    Default Anyone in The Netherlands to help me out?

    Hi all,

    Fairly new to the business, I acquired all the needed materials to hone my razor. I even got some roughed up ones to get some decent practice in.
    But here it stopped, because I had some trouble getting the roughed up razors into shape.
    With that my confidence flew out the window and now I am kinda nervous to put my good razor to the hone.

    So I was wondering if there is a kind soul in The Netherlands who is confident enough about his honing skills to show me a thing or two?

    If you feel like doing that and have the time to make it happen, please let me know. Just PM me! Btw, I live in Haarlem. But luckily Holland is small enough.

    Thanks a lot,

    Jochem

    I don't do honing for people anymore besides....I live in noord brabant, a bit far from you. But I'm sure that there's someone closer that could help you.

    For now I'm only able to hone razors with a straight edge. I'm pleased with the results I get even though I'm still a beginner. There are some very useful videos out there showing a few different techniques that work e.g.
