I think the alt right is a bunch of kids online posting Donald memes <| sep |> You should have known it was wrong when you posted yesterday and literally everyone told you that you were being a disrespectful little brat and your plan would only make things worse . Learn to fucking communicate . <| sep |> Let ' s try this one more time . The amount of old wives tales you spout about a store you have never even heard of , in a country you have no idea about , is only surmounted by the amount of nonsensical assumptions you continue to make about a complete stranger online . I asked how much of a hassle fully refurbishing the old blade would be in order to decide whether to refurbish or get a new one because I only have the blade , no strop , no paste , so either way I still need to get those before I even try to use it . I ' m not interested in just a honing , I want it so clean it can be used in a surgerytheater before I even consider bringing it up to my face as I have no idea where it has been before it was given to me . As others have pointed out , it ' s most likely not worth it since it is an old , not special in any way form or manner , blade , which holds no sentimental value to me at all . Sending it overseas to someone I have never heard of , to do the refurbishing and honing , is not even on my radar . Mind you , he ' s for all I know really good at what he does , I ' m by no means slamming him as I know nothing about him . All I ' m saying is , the conclusion I ' ve come to is that the blade is not worth that much of a hassle just to get into a state where I ' m willing to use it . So I ' m getting a new blade fully informed on the pitfalls and problems that might arise with a new blade from both the store staff themselves who besides selling the products , use them daily as they also have a very successful barbershop connected to the retail but also by recommendation from people I know personally who have been and continue to be loyal customers of theirs . That ' s not something I am wondering about at all , nor what I was asking . I ' m done with this conversation , sorry for asking a few simple questions to help me decide .
