I didn't vote. If there was an option that said it works but isn't necessary for a decent shave I would have gone for that. I can get a razor up to that level and I am happy when I do but I have shaved with some that didn't pass HHT and got a good shave.
Goes back to the individuality of skin and whisker types. More then two passes and I get irritation no matter the razor, the prep or the soap/cream. Others routinely do 3 and 4 passes. Maybe I have a lighter weight of whisker then some of the other folks out there. Some may need a razor that sharp and some may not. :shrug:
