Once gave a small razor to a friend warning that I could not get a really good shave with it. He sends an email saying he got a wonderful shave. Huh? Under interrogation, he tells me he uses shampoo with conditioner between the preshave oil, and the lather, while putting the hot towels to his face. Had to try it and it was a fantastic shave. Unfortunately, I hone more for other people, and don't feel like I can use it on those razors as it may be too likely to cover too many imperfections.
