Thread: Question about the sharpening of my razor

I was looking around for someone to sharpen my brand new straight razor, and found this guy at a knife shop who said on the phone he could do it. The guy didn't seem too knowledgeable about straight razors when i arrived. He then proceeded to put the blade on this electric saw-mill type thing and ground it in about 20 seconds and passed it to me.

From what i researched sharpening entailed using a honing stone and was slowly done.

The blade feels really sharp though, but it didn't pass the hanging hair test. And he might have took half a millimeter off the blade.

Opinions on this?
