New Razor issue

You are miles ahead of where I was when I started. I tried repairing and honing a vintage myself and it was not a good experience.
Wow, you bought 3 more! With that nice razor Outback sent and those you have a really nice set of razors.

Actually another senior member gave me the other 3. But I will be paying it forward when I can with other new members. I will say this though I have shaved with the one outback gave me and one of the new ones. I’m never going back to the multi blade razors again.

Bouschie and I, had both contacted you. We decided a man can't have just one razor, he needed another two or three so he could send one out for honing, while he shaved with another.

Now that is a great thread

Just wondering, have you gone back to Amazon and given the two razors you bought their appropriate reviews?

My father used to tell us you can buy the oats before or after the horse eats it. One variable is the steel used. A good quality steel if property honed ie the bevel set correctly should give you a quality shave. What are you using to strop the razors? I suggest you lay your strop flat on a table and see if the helps.
