Freedom of speech means that people are entitled to put forward their 'opinion' on things. My turn now. If you walked into a barber shop back in the day you could watch all the barber's stropping away to their hearts content so they could use the sharpest razor possible. Nothing has changed. I don't need any odd ball ideas that more than 10 laps on my Kanayama #70000 will degrade the edge. It's bs gentlemen. Simple. I will stick to my proven method of 20 laps on canvas, 30 on suede and an even 100 on the cordovan. No point telling everyone I'm wrong, cause my face wins the argument every time. I do respect the opinions of others, but I don't happen to agree on this one
