Okay...so I will stop reading my razor a bedtime story (I thought everyone did that). And I agree with most that it is probably an outdated view of how metal works...perhaps dating back to the times of alchemy...or maybe it was the beginnings of marketing strategy...or maybe as one suggested an excuse to buy more than one razor. I figure this last one is worth a try...so I am giving my razor a rest today (using a Schick Type G) and I told my wife, "I need to let the metal rest for a day. Gosh..that means I should pick up another straight razor!" Thanks guys for the advice...you are a wealth of knowledge (and strategy).
