    Can we agree on this...

    Open blades are fun. They provide a feeling of accomplishment and focus the mind. If anyone ever wonders if they should try... The answer is yes.

    Once initial newbie gear mesmerization fades, the Rule is the best way to really learn how razors work and gain technique mastery quickly. It's boring, but it's really the best thing a newbie can do for himself. It even makes razor collecting more fun, because each one can be appreciated for its intrinsic qualities as the skill will be sufficiently developed.

    I didn't realize you did Shavette first. Respect for that!

    I learned on a Ralf Aust 5/8 Full Hollow that was a gift from my friend Keith. It will remain with me for life as my front line SR.

    And without sufficient level of technique and skill development, you wouldn't be able to perceive that.

    I gotta find that Rapira report (instant classic and 30DC history) you did early on.

    You don't HAVE to find it. But something tells me you won't fail.
