Safety Razors With Pivots

Back in 2021 I wrote an article about single blade razors that have a pivot. I've previously said that I think razor pivots are one of the few innovations in "modern" razors that can be useful.

Do You Shave With A Straight Razor?

I'm trying to get a handle on just what it means to get a "shave ready" straight razor from an artisan. How do you know it's "shave ready?" I know there's the hanging hair test but I also know there are variations to that test, too.


How do you determine if the razor you have received is truly "shave ready?" Hit me up with a reply! I plan to use this information for a future article on Sharpologist.
