Thread: Can You Get A Straight Razor Too Sharp?

On the plus side and there is very much one - you can now get a great razor from Whipped Dog that will actually function as a razor and not as a bloodletting tool/death trap.

Well its exactly like you said, tried to sharpen it and I almost got it sharp enough and comes to a certain point and it went dull again. must have spent three hours on this razor and still would not sharpen. I would protest to ebay but to embarrassed. I will Use the scales for a restoration sometime. Will purchase name brand razors on the list of good ones from now on. Thanks for all the advise.

Too sharp? No. Not possible. I struggle to get as keen an edge as my "dealer" does. Super sharp blade, no pressure and some time to myself is what it is all about.

Mistakes are hard teachers to beat.
