I just finished trying one of the razors I sent to Glen for honing and cleaning. I did one pass with my Robeson Shuredge and its on par with my DE, and most importantly, no pink lather in the sink. Glenn did an amazing job honing them and getting them back to me quickly. I figure with a little more practice I'll be getting BBS shaves, plus its my morning meditation before heading off into the madness that I work in.
