1+++...I agree completely Zib! I've always thought that a microscope was a redundant piece of equipment...Just IMHO! I wonder how the SR shavers and Barbers from the last few hundred years ever managed to get along without them...
To me anything other than a nice smooth shave is all 'Hobby'. I'm way more interested in the aesthetic part of this endeavor rather than the scientific. I've got 'RAD, HAD, and Every Other Acronym' that relates to this hobby. Boxes of razors and hones etc. But as with Glen and Lynn have suggested, more often than not I find myself using the one hone method and a series of slurry stones (Naguras) to get the 'velvet squeegee' feel as you so eloquently describe it. Be it an Escher or a JNAT. Yes...it's not as fast...but I just like to hone. For me...it's the most relaxing part of my day. Everything else in life seems to melt away when it's just me, my hone, and a blade.
Each to their own...
