    I had a BBS strip up the left leg. It is starting to grow hair again - guess it is time to hone some more. I only have one razor that needs sharpening and around 20 more to restore. Thank God for pants as I have dark hair on my legs (or maybe should qualify by saying "in applicable areas')

    This is what I switched to for testing my blades.

    Everytime I strop the blade before getting in the shower I run a quick test on the inside of my left wrist. I do it so much that pretty much the entire inside (bottom?) of my wrist from the heel of the hand to maybe halfway down the forearm is in different states of growth from smooth to stubble to almost grown back.

    It isn't all that noticeable to me until I put both wrists next to each other then it is comical. It is like some crazy surgeon prepping to commit suicide or something, lol. One is as hairy and wiry as expected and the other is smooth.

    At one time at had no hair on my left arm and none on the top of my thighs.People always asked me about my hairless left arm and I would tell them why and it would become a facinating conversation to them.So I always thought of it as a reason to talk straight razor.People seem to think its amazing to meet a person who shaves like the old days.They always seem to bring up their Dads or Grandfathers which brings them a smile.Glad I can bring back pleasant memories.

    I'm sure my cat would kill me in my sleep if I did that to him...lol. But I do test on my leg hair when honeing just because its much thicker and gives me a better idea...and because I won't have bald spots on my arms...lol.
