    An old barber who taught me to hone and strop always stroked the razor over the heel of his hand very lightly with no pressure as the final step in sharpening. But Uranus?

    I believe Koken made some pretty nice, top of the line barber chairs as well.

    One day I was at the gym sitting in the sauna. The door is partly glass and "sauna" is on the glass part. Suddenly it occured to me that from the inside it reads AUNAS,,, this is where a bunch of naked guys are sitting. I wonder if anyone else ever noticed that? This post brought that to mind.
