Japanese & Surgical Razors?
I am very interested in the assymetrical bevels on the Japanese razors and the fact that some users have said they can get sharper than Western style shavers.
In this line of thought - I have a British surgical razor like this (a present from Tony H :D ) which is similar - one side flat, the other hollow ground. I am tempted to use the Japanese way to sharpen a razor and a Japanese stone on this Western surgical razor.
Has anyone tried to shave with such an animal (a Western surgical razor honed like a Japanese one)? I'd be interested to hear impressions...
Cheers
