Thanked: 0please help
Hi, i am new to straight razors and recently purchased an old westor bros razor. I honed it with a 6000 grit water stone in an x pattern and stropped it with a felt and leather strop. It no doubt cuts hair but when i try the hanging hair test it takes an effort to cut the hair as compared to my dads newer straight razor. My question is am i i doing something wrong or do old razors not get as as sharp as newer razors. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
