shaving with Japanese razors.
I haven't shaved with them before and always had this question in my mind how in the world someone could use that?
I ended up recently honing 2 of them and did test shaves.
I couldn't believe Actually Japanese Razor's seems like easier to use then regular razor. Just wanted to know who uses them do you have same experiment or else.
Can't get my Tosuke right
Hello fellow members,
Bought a nos Tosuke and cant get it to shave smooth. The raozr pulls on every whiskers and it feels like an angry samurai is individually pulling on them.
So I tried to shave with the hollowed side and it feels unnatural. Should I hold it with the flat side against the skin. I am right handed and trying to shave with the hollowed out side with the writing makes it feels like I should be left handed and I know it cant be right.
A shaving video would be most helpful. Lastly, the honing ratios on here are anywhere from 3:1, 3:2 and 7:3. So, which is the right one
Regards,
Dom
P.S. The .3 micron lapping film will make my Western razors the sharpest i have ever seen and they always pass the HHT
