    S - Sheffield Steel - The most wonderful material to make razors out of. Hones up quick and melts the hairs away like a blowtorch on butter.

    U - Uber Lather: The result of combining shaving soap, shaving cream, and glycerin. This process creates what some members consider the ultimate lather available. Im just too lazy to make it.

    I figured gssixgun would of beat me to the punch on this one. And im aware the real U in Uber has those dots above it, but it still works.

    Here is gssixgun's thread for reference

    V for Vintage. Some prefer to shave with something really old. They just don't make em like they used to, well, most don't anyway.

    W - Wedge - A type of shallow grind on a razor, named due to the almost wedge shape of the blade. Makes for a heavier blade.
