Yeah I have to remind myself DX does not shave like SRs, will look to make adjustments in technique and angles when the razors come in. Thanks guys.

I know it's just me being impateint

Which TI razor did you buy? I got a SS TI razor from The 'Invisible Edge' a couple of weeks ago.

Like you I find it very harsh, but it is sharp and does give a very good shave. I've polished the edge with a 12000 stone and a balsa strop and it is getting better- but not yet as good as some of my vintage razors.

I think it will get better with use and stropping- I hope!

"11/16" le grelot spartacus with rams horn scales. The box says 11/16 but I measured at 6/8s.
