Thread: Honing with a tri-hone

I thought it was a myth.....

YouTube - How to sharpen a straight razor - Walnut Creek Sports Barbershop

No myth; that's very similar to how I use my Smith's Tri-Hone to sharpen my razors. :-)

Very cool. All this talk about slurry and various hones ..... all I needed was a dry tri hone and I'd have been in business.

I wonder how bad that razor is that's gonna take 1 or 2 days to hone.

I was waiting for the "Don't do this at home folks" speach

guy says it may take 2-3 days to hone that blade. that is truth.

I love it, Did you see his smooth fluid honing technique...he's done that a few times....

10/10 on the strop.....? The strop looked like an old Cordovan to me...It seemed to have that slick coating...
