I don't actually know why they're called singing razors, they definitely make noise but its not a sound that I could hum along to. Unless my face is out of tune of course :roflmao

With your face....anything is possible, Steve. :angel:
For some reason I thought that the 'singing' term referred to the noise produced by some finely ground razors when being stropped. Not the scraping noise when shaving. But of course I may be wrong :shrug:
It is that too. That term is used rather loosely to mean a sound that the blade makes when in use of any kind. Some of my wide singers sing when honing, stropping and shaving.
I really like it, when the razor makes a clear high sound when you hit the end of the tail shortly on a metal or stone surface. If then the sound "stands" for a second or two or even longer, that makes a perfect singing razor for me. Like this Werner Breidenbach special:
