How long did you go before you had to hone your razor. I know the general consensus is when the shave no longer feels comfortable, but what is an average time frame? Also, I have heard some mixed things in regards to taping the spine. Some say that it is good to preserve the spine, but some say it isn't as good for the edge, does anyone know for sure?
