    Default Wedgies

    No butt heads the other wedgy. I hear many folks are aprehensive about shaving with a wedge. I have a old restored wostenholm wedge that is one of my best shavers. I went three days with out shaving and thought I would have an issue with the small wedge but she cut clean with on stroke better than some of my big heavy razors. Stays sharp longer too. I like em!!!

    My favorite razors are wedges. Tremendous shavers, not much feedback, just silent whisker assassins.

    I have to say that I like the silence of the wedges. If i had to pick a favourite it would be the old English smiling wedge

    I like my wedges too.
    The silent efficiency of a wedge is very nice.
    I do like all grinds though, what matters to me is that it has good steel and a proper edge

    I use wedges almost to the exclusion of full hollows. The weight helps me strop comfortably, too, and hone. My ideal razor is any 7/8" or 8/8" with a medium to full wedge grind

    I love shaving with my wedges. I just hate honing them.
