Make a good pair of strops from a seatbelt.
Barbers hone on ebay probably under $25 or abrasive strop treatment crayon $4.00..
One of my best shaving razors came from a flea market for $7.00*.

These's probaby even a qualified guy or two here who would help a BOTL out by honing a razor gratis.

*OK - so it was nasty, dirty, rusty, needed some sanding, polishing and a new edge but that was + nothing.
