How to make double edged razor blades

Watch carefully so you can do it at home.

Quite a few steps in the tempering process.

I don't remember the last time I used a blade like that. Both Schick and Gillette started making the triple blades. Couple of years ago my son got me to try Defender razor and I liked that. Recently my daughter gave me some travel kit items and a Harry's razor. Once stroke on my cheek and now that is my razor of choice. Smooth easy stoke and clean shave.

I've found when the two blades are facing the same direction, I don't cut myself but I can't get a smooth shave either.

I suspect 3 blades would have the problem even more.

So I used double edged blades like in the video. And the lighter the razor is the better it is. All plastic. The best ones I had I bougth at a surplus store in NYC. I think hotels would provide them for guests, but the blades could be changed.

Now I would buy the ones that surgeon's nurses use and throw away, but I stopped shaving altogether.

That's great that your daughter can figure out what you'll like.
