    Last time I made some 'roo strops I promised Robin (BeBerlin) that I would put together a little photo tutorial if I were to ever do it again. Well, I have done it again and, true to my word, here is a little photo tutorial.

    Ford & Medley Razor - any history? & Fine Hollow - meaning?

    That looks like a great restoration job you did on your Ford & Medley. Interesting that they were supplied to the British Army during the First World

    Hone of the Day

    Since I don't use Jet Dry and living in a small duplex, I hone on the counter in the kitchen. When I'm almost done, I reach down, open the left hand door

    It lessens the surface tension and thus allows the razor to 'glide' across the stone with less pressure.

    Many years ago I'd tried 'Smith's
