I've seen several Youtube videos where guys take a razor right out of a box and use a flat waterstone to bring the edge "up to snuff". They then strop it and it's ready to shave.
I've also read many posts here that describe much more complex methods and bring up issues that I barely understand.
So my question is this: Is the flat stone method I see in the vids gonna do me any good? I'm not trying to restore an old razor, I just want to make my good razors shave better.
