I wonder if science can explain this Or maybe, the warm air makes the edge a little bit blunt? Who knows.  |

Ceasar1: I wonder if science can explain this Or maybe, the warm air makes the edge a little bit blunt? Who knows. Lolllz.... what's so scientific about it? Simple study shows you spit into the sharpener while trying to blow in it. As you know moisture/ water from your spit makes the blade rust and become blunt. A simple rule of water on metal which equals rusting. 1 Like |
