Thread: a little advice

Ditto for what Bill said.

I used to have this problem when I finished my razors on diamond or CrO pastes. Since I've started using natural finishing hones, the problem is gone. It is somewhat agreed upon that natural stone leave a very sharp edge that can be pressed into the skin a little more, whereas pastes are just wickedly sharp and will cut you if used the same way.

So maybe he finished it with uber-fine pastes, I know my skin won't tolerate them the same way it does stones.
