Moving target (sharpness vs. comfort)

[WadePatton]

OH, I see.

Tonight I'm thinking "wow" this is buttery, i can hear 'em but feel nothing. That's nice.

Then, after two passes I'm cleaning up and them little stubbles are fighting back...wtf?

SO i grabbed some German steel and finished the clean up, no problems.

The first razor (English steel) was sharp enough to cut whiskers cleanly, but not _really_ sharp. The second razor was really sharp, but not so buttry. Methinks I'm developing a keener appreciation and differentiation of the sharpness of razors. Hence "moving target". As is said: The more you know, the more you know you don't know.

SO i re-stropped on CrOx and will try again in a day or three. I had been messing around with newspaper on the first blade IIRC. I'm not good for keeping notes, more of a "seat of the pants" pilot.
