Thread: razor cleaning ?

I wipe the blade with a wet wash cloth (old, so my wife doesn't kill me for ruining a washcloth), wipe it dry with a towel, strop on cloth 25x, and then on leather 75x, so that it is ready for the next shave (every other day). I put the razor in a snack sized ziplock bag, that has several desiccant packets in it. If I'm not going to use the razor for a while, I put a light coat of oil on the blade and a drop on each hinge.

If I get the blade & or scales wet I wipe them off & use my wife's blow dryer to get the hinge area & the whole razor really dry. Just works for me! If I am not going to use a razor for a while I wipe it down with a Hoppe's Silicone cloth used for guns & fishing tackle. Works great!

I rinse mine, then tie it up in one of my hiking socks and toss it in the clothes dryer for a good 20 minutes. It can damage the razor, but I've never had any rust problems.




(Yes, I'm kidding...)

Rinse my razor. Then use my towel to dry it leading with spine. Then pass towel between scales and crevices. And store in a sack-up sleeve.
