No no, thank Kawaguchi sensei...he's a true gem. And yes, the ura is the stamped side--sorry for that confusion. I asked especially--stamp side Ura, no stamp omote. Omote against the face.

What I did tonight was practice grips. I found that I needed to shift the razor into some rather unorthodox grips to get a good shave, but I did get an exceptionally good shave so it can be done.
