    Regarding 1st post I will say "Who cares" if the razor feel good on the face. In my honing I do not use any kind of magnification at all. Just TNT and HHT tests. That's all.

    Default Blind test #3

    So today is the last of a 3 blade test. Thes edge was very smooth but was slightly less sharp than the 2nd razor. I use My new SC from the bomb "Bill's custom scent Vetiver" Awesome scent

    Vestavia Brush
    The Bomb Custom Bill's Vetiver


    So this is how i rate the blades

    Sharpnes Smoothness
    #1 8 8.5

    #2 9.5 9

    #3 9 9.5

    My guess is that 2nd razor was on the Shapton pros and the 3rd is on a Jnat. We wont know till Robert finds his notes. LOL!

    Right on the money Rene. Your guesses are 100% right. #1 was done on Coticule. I guess I need to learn and push the envelope on that stone a little more.

    You have done a very good job. It is very useful for those who shave with straight razor. Thank you!
