Thread: Thick, Wiry Beard = Bigger, Heavier Blade?

For me, the weight of the razor does not make as much difference in my shaving as the grind of the razor. I don't know why.

I prefer the feel of a small quarter hollow razor (or heavier grind) to a full hollow of any size. Again I don't know why - like Glen said and maybe others (sorry I don't have time to read everyone's posts, so I try to hit the ones I think will be most entertaining - or have the most punctuation, hehehe) try different kinds of well-honed razors if you get the opportunity, and try to make an honest comparison for yourself to find what you really prefer.

And you are likely to find your preferences changing a little or a lot as your shaving/stropping/honing techniques improve
