Greetings Everyone,
I recently received my SR back from Glen at GemStar Customs and I thought I'd share my experience for anyone seeking out a honemeister.
TL;DR
I'll be providing a more in-depth review as well as a copy of the letter in a future follow-up post.
Thanks to all who read this!
I recently received my SR back from Glen at GemStar Customs and I thought I'd share my experience for anyone seeking out a honemeister.
TL;DR
- This is a non-sponsored review for a honing service of which I paid full price.
- Glen was always quick to respond to all emails and inquiries with a professional yet friendly tone. This includes questions after he had already received payment ad shipped the SR back to me.
- I sent Glen a new, yet problematic razor which I had previously gotten professionally honed twice with no success!
- He was able to correctly identify all geometry issues and make the necessary corrections prior to the actual honing.
- The end result was a stupid sharp razor that passed the HHT with ease, yet it felt like I was shaving with a stick of butter on my face due to how smooth it felt compared to how it was sent in.
- The razor came back with a letter outlining all of the steps he took as well as which finishing stone he used to finalize the edge.
- Glen's honing service was fairly priced to begin with, and given the results I would say it was worth every penny and then some.
I'll be providing a more in-depth review as well as a copy of the letter in a future follow-up post.
