Thread: Newbie with a Zeepk razor!

^^^ I completely agree.

Use it as a letter opener or a door stop. Don't use it for anything shaving related. If you can't feel that stropping is improving the shave how do you know you are practicing it right? If the razor won't cut whiskers you might as well practice with a spoon you can't tell if you are holding it right to cut hair.

try to get it honed. if somebody agrees to it you'll know who to avoid

The more I think about it, the more I like the letter opener idea. It could be made safe enough by a bit of bread-knifing, and what could be more spectacular on your desk? I'd be tempted to avoid opening mail until I had visitors!



Fred

or just place it in the circular file never to be seen again.....or throw it out in the garage tool box could always use it to scape dirt and grime off engine parts and whatever other handy uses you can think of for metal that wont sharpen

Step 1: Stand in front of the mirror as if shaving, with the Zeepk near your face.

Step 2: In one fluid motion, turn on the faucet with one hand and rinse the Zeepk with the other.

Step 3: Repeat #2 at least 500 times in a row without dinging the blade on the faucet.



Then pick up a real razor.

YES, YES, YES, dinging the blade really ruins the start of a great shave and the rest of the day.....
