No fotoshop skills are no where near that level.

I'm sorry that you don't like your 32. They are really hard to hone, but I have no doubts regarding your honing skills. Some razors just don't agree with some shavers. Personally I am madly in love with this razor. The more people dislikes it the better prices will get for me. Come to think about it: This is a very BAD razor! It may cause you to bleed. Send yours to me before something bad happens.[emoji2]Hullo all; I hope you enjoyed your Christmases!
I have one Heljestrand Razor, a MK32, quite a small one. I have spent countless hours honing it and thereby attempting to get it to provide a half-decent shave. I know that there is a big "fan-club" for these razors hereabouts; I doubt I shall be joining. After the last lot of honing, I decided to give it a try. After the essential (for my beard) three-passes, it wasn't too bad, but matters were greatly improved when I finished off with the Graham Solignen travel razor in the picture. And yes I honed this one too!

Thank you for your kind words. Being a Swede and not having English as my first language I'm quite happy if people understand my scribblings at all.Ha ha - you replies are always a treat to read.
To be honest my honing skills are somewhat under-developed, and here in England one cannot even buy a Japanese natural stone - even if one could afford it which I certainly cannot. However I do have success with some razors; some (usually the ones that really appeal to me of course) just refuse to co-operate. I am hoping that one day I shall have my "Road to Damascus (not a pun!) moment and find that finally I can put a proper edge on any razor.
The CVH MK32 has had too much time spent on it and will now go to the back of the queue; mind you I have a small Niestrom Eskilstuna razor that is utterly hopeless and which now lives in the "no-hopers" box, with some moustache razors and a Puma 4/8 that rejects all my blandishments!
All the best

I love my Puma razors too[emoji2] . Puma razors are just as bad as Heljestrand razors. Send them all to me. While I'm at it, Thiers Issard has never made a good razor.

I wouldn't stretch it that far, but I must admit that most Swedes speaks English better than most Americans and Englishmen speak Swedish. My very nice neighbour, a Londoner, hasn't managed to learn proper Swedish during the six years we've known each other.Arne you cant fool me....my brother lives in Sweden and you folks can speak english incredibly well maybe even better than most of us...lol
