    Hey, thanks for the remarks. I don't know what cell rot is. I like these end-of-day-style scales. I sharpen only the blade. On occasions, if I'm not being totally careful, I may hit the stabilizer...

    Here is a pic of my only bellied hollow if anyone cares to see it. It's a heck of an end-of-day razor. Thanks for all the feedback. :p212285

    Sorry if I came off rough or arrogant. I need to watch my attitude. I am just new here and really enjoy sharing this art with everyone. I didn't know that the hht doesn't tell someone all or most of...

    My "problem child" razor is a problem no more. It shaved my cheek leaving behind a smooth surface. Damn, I'm good with hones. Used my newest one, too. It shaved well, although I may take it back to...

    If it couldn't cut a head hair, how is it going to cut your beard hair, which is even tougher? I guess my straight razors are sharper than your factory double-edged blades. The hht is very easy to...

    Guys, thanks for all the input. I use a 1K/3K Suehiro to set the bevel, then I use a 4K/8K Norton, then a 12K M5 Shapton. I finish them with some green .3 micron stop paste and then I hit the shell...

    I begin with a 1K/3K Suehiro whetstone. It is a Japanese stone. I make a slurry with a 400 grit piece of Norton wet/dry sandpaper and establish a bevel. My stones are quite flat. I may need to check...

    I don't know what "pro" sharpens your razors, but I'd get my money back. ALL of the old razors I buy, can make a hair fall or plink off of the edge when I am finished honing and stropping them.

    Yes, it is a bellied-hollow. I thought that it really should be able to cut a head hair to be sharp enough to shave comfortably with. I guess I am wrong on that? Let me know. Thanks.
  10. Honing A "Swelled-belly"/Swelled-Edge Straight Razor

    Hello all. I have a problem child, as I like to call it, that just wont cut a hanging hair, even though it has a nicely polished edge. After a 4k, it will cut hair off of my arm and I have had it cut...
