    I think you'll find the cutting abilities striking. The whiskers will be mowed down. But I think you'll find the blade may be a touch too "intense". You'll feel a little more irritation than usual. You can allow your face to adjust or find another method to smooth it out just a touch. More stropping (or just shave and strop as normal) or a few (and I strongly caution you against a higher number) passes on something finer then more stropping. Perhaps stropping with a tad of pressure. These are not fragile edges. I'd also like you to notice how long the edges last. Take note of that too please.


    Let us know what you think . . .

    Update: I've been honing some more today and am having great success on a 4/4 to 4/6 ratio.
