Meaningless babble post:
My experiments show still air has little effect, however hold the blade against a 15 mph breeze and a butter knife is the result.
Next up: A roller coaster ride to expose the blade to increased G’s.
That said, I know Mr. EOU has let a DE razor blade simply sit overnight exposed to air and the result was a less sharp blade the next day. I believe it was assumed this decreased sharpness was due to oxidation, but now we know that it was probably rolling due to air pressure. Thanks for clearing that up Mr. Jan.
