Fumbling about.
This is a video made by The Superior Shave to illustrate testing a SR to see if it is shave-ready.
I'm not being critical of the video. I am being an ignorant newbie.
What am I supposed to see here. I get the technique. I see one hair on the stone after the test. Maybe other hairs are being cut but I don't see them or hear them being cut
I have some hearing loss so that could be a problem on the cutting sound if there is one. My vision with glasses which I always wear is quite good.
I have read several places that the only true test is the shave, but it would be helpful to be able to understand and use this test.
If I named my razors with girlish names this is what I'd want!
Thank for any pointers or advice.
Happy shaves,
Jim
