Singing Razors
I was stropping my DD Goldedge round point tonight. And noticed that it really sang while on the leather. I have another DD goldedge spike point that dont sing at all.
I was just wondering if anyone knew what would make one sing? Why do they sing? Is there any benefit to them singing or not?

It's also a related to the hardness of the steel. Steel that is annealed, read soft, does not ring like a piece of steel that has been heat treated.
