The Maxam Razor has been in my knife collection for years. Bought it cause I didn't have one. I have since decided to try to use it. Upon realizing it wasn't correctly honed for use, I figured what harm could it do to try it myself. If I am to mess up a razor trying to learn then it might as well be a cheap one, right!
Thus comes the internet, where someone can find out how to do anything. Though done correctly may be another issue! Anyway, I was able to partially shave with it, so I must not have been too terribly off.
I do agree that a shave ready razor would be best to begin learning with.
So now here I am looking for a professional to fix this one, or provide advice on where to get another.
I must say that the welcome has been nice.
