I have watched ML do his hand work. I was pleased to see that he really works over the entire edge.

I have tried it and found some improvement on just honed edges. I cannot do it very fast.:D I...

I think I had that feeling tonight: the one that makes you ask what?why?

I just wanted to have an easy going relaxing shave without problems.:gl:

I'll need to find Mr. Floorpizza's hanging...

It's funnier now that I realize fully just how bad a shave I had sunday night. I knew I had a couple of blunders on the hone. Tonight I found a tiny dink on the edge. The post shave condition was...

Man it's hard to come up with more. I had some thoughts but couldn't quite get it legible.

I have already stated that stropping does create a better shaving edge for me. hht does not help me any

excellent finish:D

Hi Cliff. for now I am concentrating on the coticule. I have a small nakayama asagi too. The thought to progress the edge another hone has already occurred to me:)

Both times I shaved this weekend, Mr. P, I reached for a stropped up razor to finish. :cry:

I found a couple spots on the edges with tiny chips. Since I wasn't sure if they were shave related or...

I still give you props for your strop making thread. The sanding part I...

:hmmm:Zen is in the moment however brief. I just want to learn something about my hones. I already know it's nice to return to a full treatment of preps. I like my alum gauge which stays accurate to...

Hypothetical for you;
baby face!

That's right almost like a barber, only doing better than he might. A few swipes on a peppermint soaped coticule. and shave is not much.
prep none the less, i...

Super good points. Stainless, yes. But this is not an idea for every razor as yet, but something to do to see what can be learned. Maybe even why our ancestors taught us as they did? I was encouraged...

Prep, I would settle for a minimum of some Feather preshave and lather soak while I give a couple swipes on the cot. ( I can never keep the feather products straight which one is which) When I first...

i wondered where to put it myself:) thanks

For some time I have wanted to minimize, (read:eliminate) beard prep. I have made some in roads with technique and edge quality, but to only lather and shave does not quite yield the results I am...
