    Shaver works for me. After 50yrs of straights the simple Swaty, strop and prep works for me. I've got a load of sharpening stones, diamond powders, strops, etc... Nothing wrong with experimenting and I enjoy reading about the grail chase here.

    My few razors are old and well cared for so they need little. Haven't damaged one in decades. Tried many of the methods used here and most of the reasonable methods work fine.

    The few razors I've brought back to life needed some of the fine methods learned here. Great forum and love reading it. Greg
