- Something a little different for this video. I had microphone issues just as I was getting started, so I added some relaxing music. Hope you enjoy it. The video has been edited for time.

Thank you Robert!
Very few vermont green stones find their way to West Sussex , what a lovely wide stone ❤. Hopefully a grat kind edge .... its gone midnight here Joe , im going to bed 🛌 soothing music is nice 🎶 .
@@Martins-Shaves123
Thank you Martin! This stone does produce a nice polished edge. The size of the stone makes it very easy to work with, especially with larger blades.
What a peaceful video. Great work sir!

I didn’t realize the mic had cut out. Figured I’d just add some music rather than delete the video.
Thank you for watching!
Awesome video, this type is some of my favorites. I need to do a video on a couple rough slates l just turned into hones, a Vermont Green and a molted.
@@BigEShaves
Thanks Eric. Can’t wait to see the rough slates. You know you’re at a whole other level when you’re making your own..lol
Something that I find very interesting and I don’t think you did by mistake is that you spent more than 1/3 of your time on that one stone setting a bevel. Until minute 10 you were working on that and the rest of the 15 minutes was on the remaining stones… without a properly set bevel you cant do much. Great work honing and I really enjoyed the music! I can tell you know your stuff my friend!
@@seanstapelfeld
That one did take longer than expected to set the bevel. Had to be patient with this one. Once it was properly set, the rest was smooth sailing. Thank you for watching!
You did a nice job on that razor. It reminds me that I need to be taking pictures on the before and after of restoration. It gives some more context of the transformation of the razor from neglected to a useful tool.
Did you mute the tip on that razor? It seems to be the style of a square point.
Thanks for sharing.
I did mute the tip. There was actually a small chip in the tip, so I rounded it off.
@@subtleartsoapco Those tips can really get you good. So I prefer to not take the chance. So I was curious if you did the same.
I wish I could hone as you do. How did you acquire the skill? Is there formal training or did you learn from working with master honers? Just curious how one picks up the skill. I would rather not destroy my straight blades.

I just decided I wanted to learn. I watched a lot of videos, read a lot of articles, picked up a few stones and jumped into it. I started practicing on cheap eBay razors until I was comfortable. I’m still learning new techniques. Check out the channels I listed in the description. Very experienced razor honers that provide great tips and advice.
Thank you for watching!
So far, so good with my 3x3x8 Vermont slate. I shaped 2 sides differently to accommodate my honing style.
Nice “Subtle” music….😀
@@billm.2677
I saw you mentioned you were going to shape it. That’s above my skill level. Very curious about it though.
