Is the water corroding the edge?

Could they make razors with carbide?


I was taught to "strop" the razor on my left palm (the right is
reserved for other uses) before trying to cut facial hair.


Traditionally, the left hand is used (before toilet paper) to wipe
your butt and thus one eats with the right hand.
