Throw away the Dremels?
Im out here in San francisco on business,and found a guy who is a master melal finisher.I gave hin a fairly rusty meatchopper to try.He did a superb job,removed all corrosion,and pitting and put a mirror finish on the entire blade.He knows metalurgy,and didnt allow the blade to get hot so that it would anneal or draw,Im going to get him to do a couple more in worse condition and see how they turn out and will let you know Price was 4.50 Regards Gary

Yeah... and if somebody I know would ever follow up on that grinder he said he could have made, then I could probably do some grinding too...

Do people sharpen worn straight razors with it?

Masochists might
That stuff can't be nearly as fine as what you need for a shaving implement. Even if the edge is completely worn or chipped, you generally would just use 1000-grit wet/dry sandpaper to wear it down.

Sharpeneing a razor with a Dremel is NOT! a good idea.

If you would like your face to take a striped pattern. You could even make a cris-crossed scar-pattern on your face Originally Posted by icecow

Icecow... quick question.
