Thread: How do you refurbish a used razor?

Welcome to SRP.

LESS is more with a razor's edge. I set bevels with a 1K grit CHOSERA, and then work my up through 5K, 8K, and 12K.

Bench grinders and razors generally don't get along too good. Razor steel is as hard as it can be made and will break like glass. A bench grinder will help it along REAL quick.

You know what an edge ought to be for wood working stuff and a razors edge is WAY beyond that. you might think about sending that darlin' out to one of the guys here on the forum that hone razors for folks. There are several good ones. That way, you can see and feel what a razor's edge is supposed to feel like. At that point you'll have a good shaver and you can work your way further into this madness or toss it out the window if you don't like shaving with one.
