Hi,
I've had a col. conk razor set for several years, it has a soligen blade, stone, and a reindeer hide/linen srop. For 4-5 years it was all I used to shave and it did well, but suddenly I can't seem to get an edge on it. Is it possible that it lost its temper somehow? It seems like it will sharpen up nicely, but I'll barely get started (one or two passes) and it's dull again.
What gives?

Maybe I should just replace it?
I saw a brand "rooster and Hen" at Smoky mountain knife. Are they any good?
Cheers,
Pat
