HomeAwayFromHone@sub.wetshaving.social 4 weeks agoAha! I knew it! I had this trepidation when I sold this one pixelfed.social/i/web/post/748289303255129698 especially because they also took this very similar one pixelfed.social/i/web/post/748289996039802817 …and I guess it’s probably for the best I abandon the foolish notions I had when I listed this imgur.com/a/mardor-z12y8cw and it was especially foolhardy to have ever considered parting with imgur.com/a/chassaigne-k0Fy4tt 🤔
But it’s also satisfying to set a new bevel, just not the same if it was already shaving fine (not to mention wasteful). And honing as a service seems less relaxing for myriad reasons. So compromises must be made. Thankfully(?) I’ve slowed a fair bit since the initial burst when I was getting into it, settling into a bit of an equilibrium with a handful in and out each year.
