From what i read, honing straights will not get them as sharp as DE or SE blades.

Personnaly i use a feather AC and it's sharper and smoother than any straight i have.

Some members have honed with different angles from 14 to 20 degrees.
They report that smaller angles are sharper,
yet Zowada says that feathers are about 22 degrees

I'm puzzle. Anyone has theories or comments on that.
