Silly People....You are doing it all wrong.

You need to travel to the north side of the Great Pyramid in Egypt. Once there find a native Egyptian (beware of tourists). Have your new friend construct your pyramid out of local sandstone 1.36 cubits square at the base. note...construction must be completed at the height of a solar eclipse.
It is very important to have sharp razors before inserting into the pyramid!

I laughed, I laughed and I laughed when I read this. Picturing Lynn putting dull razors inside a pyramid and taking them out and becoming shave-ready is hilarious.

Hilarious, but TRUE.

I am sure that the 507.23 I have spent is going to pay for itself in honing time.

Hi again Rob,
Well, your post has certainly shown the many members willing to help you reach the goal in mind. Kinda nice when others take an interest, although this IS an important subject. As I mentioned earlier, I'm anxious to get rid of all that honing and stropping crap.......what a waste of time.
Seems like there's a few skeptics also, but that's to be expected. The answer of course, is to show em they're wrong! Yep.....that'll teach em, and many of us are behind you. I would suggest building as many of those pyramids as needed to get the proper results. It might take 2,3, or maybe even 100 times before you get it exactly right, but I believe it's worth the effort (and cash) you'd be putting out. I think other members would agree with me on this, if that's any help.
Looking forward to hearing about the diamond/platinum one you have on the drawing board at the moment. I have a good feeling about that one, plus, if it doesn't quite work out you can probably sell some of it for 'parts'.
Hope that helps,
Martin

You guys are KILLING me!


Thanks!

You mean it doesn't?!?!

No no noe, you're doing it all wrong. It needs to bea pyramid out of pyramids.

THAT'sthe secret of the ancient egyptians.

Hah I know a way to keep it sharp forever! The pyramid has to be a vacuum, no air or other gas inside and you just leave the razor in there forever! Can't use it, but hey it'll never get dull

The real problem with all your faulty pyramids is that you didn't consult the engineers at Ferrero Rocher. If you look closely at this video, you can see that only the angle achieved by these engineers can be used in your pyramids.

And you thought they only made candy...it appear Ferrero Rocher is on the leading edge of razor sharpening technology!

"Monsieur! With these sharpening techniques you are really spoiling us!"

On a serious note, my wife bought me a pyramid, with official instructions, a book on pyramidology and a concentrator. The concentrator is a metal disk containing a precise mixture of special alloys. The pyramid has to be placed with the razor oriented towards the north, at least 3 feet from any metal. If it doesn't work, the book recommends trying at least 3 other locations. It is obvious that, when it doesn't work, it is because it has not been installed properly. Also, the razor needs to be left under the pyramid for at least 80 hours. I put a razor under it two days ago and will shave with it Monday morning. I'm absolutely positive it will work and will report back with my results.

I think the Mythbusters tried that.

Do I really need to give you the results?



If a blade stay sharp, it's because it's not used.

How can I tell if it's an aggressive or conservative pyramid?

Actually, the book claims that the pyramid will sharpen a dull razor.

I don't know either ... but a razor under a pyramid makes a cool centerpiece on the coffee table. When I get access to a camera I'll post a picture.
