Imagine a stone that you had to lap the razor on for 80 hours without stopping.

Do you have to put the blade to an angle depending of your latitude n earth to follow the magnetic field?

What if you were in the southern hemisphere.?

These are good questions. Since the book and instructions were published in Italian, for the Italian market, I assume that big differences in lattitude or different hemispheres were not taken into account.

On a little but not by much serious path, I had a class about different analysis techniques available today for different materials, one of them was Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) where you need a point of a few microns to "touch" your sample. Someone asked how these points were made. Teacher said it was made by ionic pickling.

Can you imagine a knife or razor sharpened with this method?

Maybe it's what is happening with the pyramid.


We have a saying in French that could be translated by something like " Genius narrowly misses insanity"

And I'm walking on a wire. That's my life.

Funny you should mention that. My wife is a colorpuncture therapist trained by Peter Mandel.

Sounds less painful than needles.

Maybe the razor wasn't facing north.

Maybe they didn't use silver solder either.

First shave today was good, nothing out of the ordinary. I'll report back in a week, if nothing changes.

By "good" do you mean better than it shaved before it spent 80 hours in the pyramid? Just for clarification's sake, of course

That entirely depends on whether you actually believe in what you are doing.
