@pennywise69clown @horsefly4 Agreed. you only break even at around the 5-10 year mark if you are wise in what you buy. but its a manly skill that you should learn, cuz if shit goes down, you wont be able to buy cartridges or use electricity.

@horsefly4 Cost-wise. NO!!! It definitely doesn't. You think it will, because you think the razor, stones and strop will last your whole life. And they will. But then you see an antique razor at a swap-meet, or you decide to buy a stone with a finer grit, or an antique French strop and the finest paste you can find. Nobody buys this stuff to save money. A good electric razor probably works out cheaper than anything except growing a beard. I found myself on Ebay only yesterday, looking at stones.

@scaryguy101 it's a slurry stone (small piece of stone of the same type) - it raises the garnets out of the stone to create a milky, abrasive liquid

could you please tell me what are you first rubbing on the stone? Thank you

A nagura stone.
These create a fine slurry on the waterstone that helps sharpen the blade quicker.
Nagura stones only work with very fine grits, like 4000 and finer.
beats wasting money on those disposable razors all the time
