Hmm, thanks. Okay, I am not refusing to get my razor honed, I just would have liked to be able to do it myself. As for how the razor shaved, the best I can say is that it shaved okay in a couple places and not as well elsewhere. For example, on my cheek with the grain in a variety of different angles and orientations, it will cut some of the hair, but not give me an especially close shave. If I lay the spine on my cheek and go back up very lightly, I can get it close under my sideburns and it feels perfect. If I drag the razor lightly on my face at 20-30% anywhere, I get serious razor burn.
