Thread: What about stainless? Anyone use them?

My Dovo Pearlex is my daily shaver. I found
that it took an edge quite easily, and gives
a great shave!

I have a Froidur, and I don't have any difficulty getting it sharp. In fact I believe it's much easier to sharpen than the average Wade&Butcher.
edge retention is the same... It's not the type of steel so much as the hardness.
but no one can deny that stainless does polish up really nice.

what everybody else said. i have stainless Dovo's and henkels... they all took a little extra lovinging on the 8k norton and Hunsrueck to be very good shavers... then a little trip down the 1 and .5 micron diamond paste paddles made them smoother sice the first honing they have only been touched up on the paste.
