Thread: Scary sharp

Just remember, the finer you make that fin, the shorter it's 'shaving life'.

Find the balance that gives you -

best shaves x shaving life of blade.

Well, being I have a fondness for a sharp knife, I guess the Nortons would be the best choice for a beginner. The only problem now is, can I get my Spyderco Salt I that sharp? lol.

I had read about the Scary Sharp system for sharpening my knives and when I found this forum, wondered about the uses of it for a straight razor. The papers would most likely be changed after every use to get maximum effectiveness out of them, at least for my taste.

Thanks for all the replies. They have given me the answer I was looking for.
