First I have to say John Crowley is a class act! He honed this razor to perfection. This razor is amazing to shave with, no nicks, no razor burn, and a clean close shave WTG. Haven't tried ATG yet, but I don't really need to. The first and second passes WTG are so good that I'm pretty satisfied with that alone! This razor shaves so much better than my Dovo 5/8, which I think I honed incorrectly. I'll post some pictures a bit later.
