On the first day, when the blade is fresh, your- shave is smooth and cool. But very soon your beard begins to dull the edge. Soon the pulling and scraping become unbearable. You throw the old blade away slip a new blade in your razor and begin the same round again. The real reason that blades , grow dull Under a microscope, a razor edge is seen to consist of hundreds of tiny teeth. When these teeth are in alignment, the blade is sharp. But the very first shave with a new blade bends these teeth out of alignment, and the blade begins to lose its' edge. With most safety razors, there is no way .to. smooth the delicate teeth t back into alignment. The original smooth, fine edge of the blade grows rougher with every shave.
