Thread: Got a new Hart - and I'm so sad!

What Iz6 said. I think you'll really like it once the edge is as it should be. And with your choice of honemeisters, there will be no doubt about the edge. Enjoy!

Well I guess that's good. I always wanted this razor. I guess I don't really understand how the company can advertise it as "shave ready" when it's so abundantly clear that it's not. I mean do they want to turn customers away?

Both of my Hart steel razors came what I would describe as "almost shave ready." They were darn close to being shave ready but not quite there. Don't worry Hart Steel razors are great when they're honed up properly. I took mine to a norton 8000 then my thuringian to get it the rest of the way there and it made my arm hair explode off my arm when I was done testing it let alone giving me a great close shave.
