    I'm not speaking for "the guys" only for myself. I find an edge off of a coticule comfortably sharp and smooth for shaving. I find it sharper yet and still comfortable if I hit some licks on an Escher following the coticule. I find an edge honed on my Shapton 15k sharper yet but not as comfortable. In this post here Lynn describes Thuringans as being,"on par with my coticules" but not as good as his Eschers. So to me Lynn is saying that he gets a better shave from an Escher than from a coticule. I know I do from mine. Seems to me that not all hones leave the edge feeling the same to the skin nor are all equal in sharpening even if close in grit. BTW, did anyone say dull or duller ? I agreed with too sharp but that doesn't mean that I am advocating dull.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
