    Not sure what it is about a coticule shave. You're right with that they don't seem sharp enough. They edge doesn't really bite into the thumb pad, or pass the the hht5 with flying colors, i usually get a 3 or a rare 4. A 5 after the strop session. But the not so sharp edge has been the best shaves so far. I've tried a few other hones, but have always gone back to the coticules. Does anyone have any input as to why the coticule gives such a skin friendly shave? I have a thick beard but very sensitive skin. Think the binder? The garnets garnets shape maybe?
