Faena Friday. Terrific shave from this stainless steel razor that is considered inferior by some. I don't think it's the steel. This razor has an edge that is refreshed with my latest process. It's as sharp and smooth as any of my carbon steel straights.

I always heard Friodurs mentioned as the one exception proving the rule that stainless steel razors are inferior. Even Brad Maggard, who basically only likes razors made before 1862 (I'm extrapolating and exaggerating a bit) begrudgingly includes them on his must-have list.

Either way, I'm yet to find try a bad stainless steel razor. Be it from Henckels, Ralf Aust, or Dovo, my experiences with stainless steel straights (shaving and honing) have been delightful so far
