Weck Thursday, Weck Surgical Prep. Mowed them whiskers down.
Although I've never done it myself, it should be no different than rescaling a regular straight Pop over to the Straight Razor Restoration forum here on B&B for lots of experts and rescaling posts.Has any one tried to change the scales in a weck sextoblade?
Honestly thats why i like keeping the guard on it. Also did you blunt the corners?Well, I did it. Against my better judgment I got the Sextoblade I bought a couple months ago out of the back of the drawer for a second attempt (let's just say the first attempt took some time to recover from.) This one is a full size with black bakelite scales and no guard. Put the Annie blade back in, used my maximum glide products (shaving oil and brushless cream) and shaved my cheeks, three WTG passes on each side.
Not very efficient but I did take down the hair this time. Only one nick on my left cheek. Styptic handled that immediately. Finished up with the Gillette. No burn from the splash today.
Man, I don't know. It's not too shocking to me that using a safety razor took off the way it did when they were invented. This is difficult.
