    Sometimes I've used a leather belt. This is at work where sometimes I've packed a razor, when it's a weekday and I didn't have time to shave at home. I've used my forearm but on the multiblade plastic Gilletes. This was when I was on the road to straights around late 2010. I made one last almost a year.
    bruseth and Bram like this.
    Arise, awake, and learn by approaching the exalted ones,
    for that path is sharp as a razor’s edge, impassable,
    and hard to go by, say the wise. Katha Upanishad – 1.3.14

    Just grab ahold of the window curtain and give it a good stretch, then start stropping.

    Or a thickness of newspaper wrapped around a hardcover book.
