Thread: Thoughts on Honing Wackers (moved from Die Wackerfans)

Guys we are going way way OT here, if all the Wacker Fans want I can break this thread off at post #139 and start it as a new one, just let me know...

Well, it's sharp now.. REALLY sharp. I did something I haven't done in quite a while, I sliced my skin on the jawline next to my right earlobe. Not paying enough attention as I thought.. "Wow, this is going really smooth....look how the blade glides along, maybe juat a bit more....cut. Wife put that dermatological super-glue on it after we got it toned down a bit. Didn't hurt that bad but I bleed pretty easily with my high blood pressure meds so it was a little while (10 minutes or so) before I manged to finish the shave. Washed off the old soap, put on new and boy is it a shaver now!! Still feeling my face and smooth and I didn't go against the grain either. It now has that certain "ping" I hear on my strop that I only hear with some of the sharpest razors. So I, and Glen (and others) can give you "rest assured" that your Wacker will be a Prima sharp razor once it gets dialed in right.
