Hello from Northern Ontario
Great place to find info for an older new member.
New to the straight razor shave and how to hone and make shave ready since buying a razor that was made in China and what a lesson need I say more?
Blade had bevels that where different on each side and worked for more than a few hours trying to make shave ready . Problem solved when I found a post here on using a magic marker to check your blade bevel and it made the lights come on and showed that someone didn't know how to bevel at the factory since the razor was brand new. Any how now I'm hooked on make it shave ready.
Should have paid more attention to my grandfather who was a Sargent Major in the Canadian Black Watch WW1, shaved only with the straight razor and raised me by himself since I was 7 I'm now 70 ha not waiting any more. Time to be sharp.
Have a great 2015 everyone.
