I sorta went through the same thing when I first used the HHT I was popping hairs like a bandit, I thought Phhht my blades are freaky sharp, I am a honing God,, Then I tried one of the wife's hairs by accident and learned that the HHT really has to be calibrated or it is Absolutely useless...
Very true...but if you use it as a component and not the end-all-be-all for judging if you are getting there, it has some value. The same is true in the world of knives...there are endless ways to "judge" sharpness, but they are all weak analogs for what is really important (how the tool works for the intended job)...all too often guys want pocket knives that do nothing other than look neat and whittle hair...that is fine, but a honking big (or tiny) burr on an edge will whittle hair like crazy

That is some more data. Interpretation is always the tricky part
