The shave test went horribly. Usually I can get a nice comfortable shave off my normal bevel set and then unicot method. Not so much after i decided to use the rolling x's. Even after two passes on the cheek WTG and XTG I can still feel stubble which never happens. So it is boggling my mind a bit but its using a different stroke with which I am not comfortable with. I did watch Glen's video yesterday while i was honing. I just finished my honing for the night now and will get a christmas eve shave tomorrow morning and see how its going. If all else fails I'm going to have to look into another method to accomplish a shave ready edge... The wait.... Merry Christmas BTW.
