This possibly will be one.
Will the edge on a razor deteriorate if left unused for a couple-three months?
Facts: I have a contemporary razor made by one of the better respected makers.
Bought it new; had a killer edge when delivered. Used 3-4 times over a time. Then just fell out of rotation for a few months. No reason why, just did.
Picked it up today, stropped....very mediocre shave. Tugged, rough...no bueno. Razor had to go into the service bay for an appointment with one of the finishing rocks.
Fact is this razor was properly cleaned and stropped before its hibernation. Kept dry, protected from external cooties. Do edges just go “stale” with lack of use?
Like I said, stupid question? Perhaps?
