A dodecahedron works better. But you still need to go 50 on the .1u diamond pasted balsa post-shave.

Boring and predictable
I went to a barber on 45th street between 2nd and 3rd Avenue in Manhattan, NY in the 1990s who still utilised SRs. Nothing like it!My brother and I when boys went to a local Italian barber, Dominic, for haircuts in the late 1950s and into the early 1960s. After finishing our haircuts, Dom used some warm lather from a machine and a straight razor to shave the back of our necks and do the rest of the clean up. He used the same straight razor on each of us; he stropped it some before use. He did the same with the other customers as their haircuts were finished; I could see as we waited our turn. He had a few straights on the counter, but used the same one on most as I recall. So, in deference to Dom, a good 15 minute rest should do it. BTW a haircut for boys cost $1, then at some point it went up to $1.50. The tip was 25 cents and my Mom always made us give the tip to Dom directly, I guess it was a teaching moment.
When we went to visit our relatives in Philadelphia, we got our haircuts from our great-uncle Dave, my maternal grandmother's youngest brother, who had his own barbershop. Uncle Dave commanded respect in our family, as he was a business owner. His shop was small and had three chairs. Same basic haircut, but Uncle Dave always gave us lollipops and didn't charge my folks. I don't recall exactly when barbers went from using straight razors to using clippers for finish work, but I'm guessing it was sometimes in the early 1960s.

I do hope it is not to Paul Desmond and Dave Brubeck who played 9/8 time - not good for metal.
Heresy!
I suspect my razor of being deaf

Resting my razor
Back in 1991 when I have just started that
Was a call of compassion(from my cheeks)
It still rings in my mind
" hey dummy, get another razor and give this poor boy a rest from your bad honing and shaving techniques"
Things have changed since then
But I still do rest my razors
