I wonder if something like this could be done?

  • The Strokes

  • The Regular X-Stroke For the majority of razors with a straight edge. This is the basic stroke for honing razors. Continually shifts the points of contact that the blade makes with the hone, compensating for small discrepancies in blade geometry and thus effectively assuring that the entire edge receives attention.

  • The 45 degree X-Stroke The back side of every razor ( I have heard of left handed razors out there, but have never actually seen one, they would be reversed)
