I hear that sleeping with your head under a pyramid will make you sharp as a razor. You should try it Spike and let us know how it goes.

Thank you again

FYI: I prefer to bounce mine off a wall or tree a few times before I do the HHT, that way when you DO hang it (I like using the ears), it doesn't squirm around so much. Thus giving you a more accurate test.

I am very well preserved for 236. I quite clearly remember telling George that not fibbing about the tree would end badly

nun2sharp - sleeping with a pyramid doesn't help. I tried it, but my wife says I am just as dull as ever.

WHOA, WHOA... WHOA! Did we miss this? I think it needs its own thread. It's along the lines of guys that believe they have traveled time. Amazing stuff. I mean top notch comedy!

I've seen many of your helpful forum hints, and I know it's your nature to be willing to assist others as best you can. Well, THAT post of yours is gonna help me out, and here's why. I'd been hesitant to start using a straight because I'd have to learn that honing and stropping crap. No, I never actually looked at what was involved, but I did some reading about those things. I always figured it would be extremely difficult, judging by all the whining that goes on here. Man...............was I wrong!!!
Your razor sharpening video is the first I've actually seen (that is you in the picture isn't it?), and it was a real eye opener. That short movie makes everything seem clear and easy, and I'm excited to buy my own brick and try that out soon. Yeah, I have 4-5 straights that are in nice shape, but need some touching up, and that technique looks like something I can do! Yeah, those techniques are similar to the way I sharpen my 'work' knife on the extra coarse grit sandpaper, although I use buttermilk for a little extra 'slip'. Did I mention I'm a part time moil?
Anyway, none of the razors are worth more than $200-300 each, so I don't mind practicing on a few till I get it right.
Thank you once again for helping, and I'll let you know how that goes for me.

Oh........hehe, kind of a silly question..........

This isn't a reference to another thread by any chance is it?

They're probably just as qualified to build pyramids.

I whole heartededly agree.
