My best shave to date, 8 years was with a cute little swede that mparker sent me.
a Neistrom that he had sharpened. Previous attemps were with an antique my sister brought back from England. Well it was sharp for a knife

My previous technique was kind of a slicing drawing action

after many slices cuts and gouges I could just barely make it through a shave that might take 30 min or so.

The olde one tought me how to handle a str8, but wow viva le difference. No more slicing action just a strait pull.

Thanks mike
