    Default Jargon...

    Where is the jargon and abbreviations thread...?
    For instance
    Bbs
    Dds

    just in terms if shaving first please... maybe a little later we get the ones for sharpening evaluation maybe in the repair thread.

    Not sure if there is one. BBS is baby butt smooth I think, like the shave I just had. DDS is probably DFS, damn fine shave. RAD is razor acquisition disorder, hang around long enough, that will become clear, HAD is hone acquisition disorder, etc. Read and learn, best of luck. YMMV.

    Don't feel bad. I've been around here forever and they keep inventing new ones and I have to go looking for their meaning.

    Translate? There is no location set for your profile, so I didn't know translation was necessary.
