Jimbo said ordinal, is that anything like a cardinal in the Western Hemisphere?

Thanked: 60Is it not that we are all different? after all honed correctly on what? 8k 12K 30K, Natural, man made, followed by nothing or pastes?
So I can agree our razors need to be honed correctly but to what degree? Seems we all like something different, some shave from a 8k and love it some need much more, some love a hollow grind some love a extra hollow grind, some like carbon steel some like Inox. Our faces are different as are our razors? I think they are….
For me buttery is the relief a newly sharpened razor brings to a face that has been shaved for a while with a sharp razor that doesn't pull but isn't just right. Some just glide better than others, those are buttery.
I don't have a lot of experience but I already know that there are ferrari's and Mini's, but the price isn't the important thing its the feeling the razor gives us each and every day, to some the mini is the business to others its the Ferrari.
James recently honed two razors for me, Before he did it I had my favourite, after he honed, they both were equally sharp and smooth but one was definitely buttery to me. It's still my favourite.
Just my opinion so far.Last edited by kevinred; 01-18-2014 at 10:01 AM.
