Thanked: 5
Ah huh................ hmmm, that might need a little bit more explaination, but I think that I may see where you are coming from..... maybe........ I believe that I will give my razor a shot in a bit and see how it shaves compared to before I rolled the edge (stupid mistake) and let you guys know the results. I'm pretty sure that the edge was there though because I could give it a few rounds on the non-pasted strop and it would pass the hht before I used the paste. I do believe the reason it wouldn't pass was because my hair is so fine. Again, maybe, I'm not the master.

Thanked: 150Wow, this is great info!
Lots of guys out there have MAAS and have probably never thought of using it as a stropping paste, good to know there are viable options that serve multiple purposes.
And congrats on your job well done!

Thanked: 1212Hey Kevin,
The remark I made was more meant to elaborate to Chris' post in general than to address your particular situation. Based upon your shaving experience, I think that your bevel was properly set and that Russel Baldridge was right with his estimate about your razor's condition.
Enjoy your success.
Bart.
