    I have 3 razors that are 8/8, two Wade & Butcher fbu's and a custom I made with a Deer Mountain Forge damascus blade I bought on the bay. Number 4 is in the works with Koraat. As time goes on I am much preferring the larger blades.
    I'm sensing a trend here...

    I have a 9/8 Greaves that shaves beautifully and lays so nice while stropping. Every time I use it, it's such a pleasure.

    This is not easy to shave with but quite an experience:

    10/8ths+ for me an a couple 8/8ths that I can call upon when I feel like it. Normally 9/16ths to 7/8ths for daily shavers.

    The Biggest Razor i shaved with (until today) was a W&B 9/8" full hollow reground, against my expectation it was a nice and easy shave without any handling problems. Together with the W&B i hava some 8/8" and 15/16" but usually shave with Razors about 6/8" when i shave daily, the bigger ones are more for the special shaves of the week :-)
