First I want to thank everyone who has contributed to showing newbies how to wet shave, safety razor and straight razor shave.

I've actually had a fun and relaxing time doing this. I was talking to my mom and mentioned that I was using a straight razor, I thought she was going to cry because saying that brought up memories of her watching my grandpa shave when she was a little girl.

I've been using a round point to shave and so far no nicks with it, fantastically close shaves.. I got a new (used refurb) square point, after I opened my face up (Bled like crazy) the first time I tried it I thought a rounded blade is a better choice for me.

What is the best way to round off a square or spike point so that I don't damage the blade. I have several that I want to do this to, they are all full hollow ground, Solingen marked blades.

Thanks

Mike

P.S. the scar looks pretty badass, but you do get a few weird looks when you tell them how you got it.
