About Me


I am a father of two almost remarried Chef who likes all things sharp. I discovered BnB while looking into options for overpriced cart which led me to expensive straights... go figure. I started with a Weishi, Omega boar, and some Conk lime soap. Then I discovered how much better things could be! Now Primarily shave with straights but still enjoy my DEs from time to time. Personally I love to cook, ride my bike, hike, and someone in the house may say I play a little too many video games. Aside from food i enjoy craft beer and living in Vancouver we have a lot of it, Growlers are filled regularly from many favorites. That and I enjoy taking pictures!

Sharpening/Honing


As I have just recently started down the straight honing path my modest collection of stoned were purchased with knives in mind save for two a Chinese 12k and the Okudo tomae.
Other stones are King 220, 800, 1000, 1200, and 4000
I would like to upgrade a few of these but they have served me well for the last few years
