I honed up a razor before shaving today, this is the first razor I bought and its very dear to me.Its extremly hollow ground, I guess what you would call a singing razor.When I started straight shaving, I actually dinged this razor in my sink, living a large chip out.That was my first honing prosject.
Anyways, it gave a superb shave today.But while finishing my second pass, I turned to do some stropping.Some how it slipped from my hand, and fell right on the tiles! I actually considered for a fraction of a sec. to put my foot out, sadly it doesn't grow back, so I had to let it fall.I heard a loud PING! And I tought that the razor was toast........
Upon closer inspection I was amazed to the lack of damage! I picked up my jewlers loop and when using 30x, I couldn't see one singel micro chip!!! I just could not believe it! After a few soothing words to the razor and some laps on the strop, I finished my shave.
I am bullet proof today!!
