Now I am confused about all of this. Are you saying the razor should hold a keen edge through out multiple passes, but you need to hone a razor every third to fifth shave? I would think it would be better for the razor to strop it a few times extra during a shave than hone it so often, even if for only a few swipes. My first razor that I got from a member lasted months before it ever saw a hone from me. I now as many can not leave well enough alone, but just wanted to have this clarified so people don't think they have to hone that often.Quote:
