Old Fancy Handle Straight Razor`s

[Gunstock Jack]

Those are very cool razors, Dimitri. Incredible skill involved in the production of something like that.

This is an old Straight Razor that my Grandpa used to use, Cattaraugus Cutlery Co., Little Valley, NY.

You should put grandad's razor back to use! Looks like a good 'un!

[bejugo]

I agree!...now all I have to do is learn how to sharpen it, and then learn how to use it!

Owd Wullie got me started off right on the sharpening and I've now been shaving with a straight for six or eight months. Only cut myself a few times and it din' hurt much; rarely cut myself anymore. Sure like usin' the straight! SMOOTH!

[Owd Wullie]

It is amazing how smooth the damn things will shave if they're sharp.

Also amazing how dull they are until you actually figure out how sharp they'll get. A dull razor (dull when compared to one properly sharpened for shaving) will still cut the HELL out of you. It may pop hair off your arm with no problems, but that don't mean it's ready to shave. When one will cut the hair on your arm a quarter of inch above the skin, she's gettin REAL close to be ready to shave with.

AND if that edge ain't right, it is NOT fun shaving with one because it feels like it's peeling your face off.
