OK just had my first shave with the razor brought up from fresh bevel set. Verdict: not too shabby. I shaved WTG and it did great, nice close shave. Switched to ATG and it did a pretty smooth job there too. BBS no problem and no irritation. It wasn't quite as smooth as say a good Thuri edge, but I'm pretty happy with the shave. It smoothed out the edge that I normally get from the 8k that preceded it in the progression. I'll try a few more iterations/progressions and see what works best. Not half bad.
