Earlier today I was showing my straight collection to my father...
He asked what the difference was between a factory sharp razor and a shave ready razor.

So I showed him a Filarmonica #13 from Classic that was sent to me for honing, which he declared "very sharp", and he shaved a small spot on his leg with it.
I then handed him my 7/8 Froidur... his response was "WoW!" and he proceded to filet his leg...



This picture was taken about 10 minutes later once we got the bleeding under control.

He actually did fine at first, he shaved about a 2 inch spot, but at the end of his stroke, instead of lifting the blade, he slid it sideways off his leg...

Needless to say my mother has forbidden him from trying a straight.
Although he now understands the difference between scything and slicing.
