Perhaps a little expansion to make it a bit clearer. A couple of times a year on the hones with chromium oxide in between sounds pretty normal. It's jut the frequency of chromium oxide, or other abrasive paste, use that seems a tad excessive to me. Are you getting the best out of your stropping? If a razor is shaving well but dulls after a few shaves I'd suspect my stropping technique, or number of laps to be the issue.

in that case I advise you to stick with matters you can grasp, like computer games

I think you mixed up your crox with the green crayon you use for writing,

At what point do I think of myself as an experienced shaver, myself I would hazard a guess at around a year of DE shaving. If I was to include Straights and all that entails with ought a doubt at least a year at the very least. I would thought it courtesy to listen to the advise of experienced users with ought resorting to shouting and downright abuse.
If I am wrong I would be very surprised, even as a Newbie I know common courtesy is to be expected.

It's quite clear he knows no more about the subject than when he got his first razor in August 2009, when he quite evidently formed the opinions he's been shouting about to all and sundry ever since. He probably can't believe his luck that he hasn't been given the heave ho yet - it only took him 9 posts to get chucked off SRP, which really is going it some even for that forum. A Google search produces some highly entertaining results from a whole welter of forums: "hyperborean straight razor" will do the trick.
Hyperborean: if you had pulled your neck in a bit earlier I would have kept that to myself, but tonight's little display shows you for what you are. I don't give a good god damn what you do with your razor - you're well on your way to ruining it. Now kindly go somewhere else, if there's anywhere left.

FWIW I have asked Boab to look at the thread and make a decision about it - he's got a good head on his shoulders and wahtever he decides is OK by me.
Regards,

Ok, let me set the record straight, yes Neil earns money on honing razors, it's his job, in the meantime if you read through some honing posts, you'll see that he's given a lot of advice on how to do it yourself...Hyperborean said:<herp-derp>... can't make any strong assumption how much is your personal interest involved here, however use of pastes is not in the interest of those who hone others people razors for money.Neil Miller said:...for any further posts by this individual count me out (no great loss there, I know).
