Thread: Update: Dorko 7-Day Set "Blind" Shaving Test

This thread will be for periodic updates on the "blind" shaving test of the Dorko 7-Day set.

The original thread describing the seven different techniques Glen used in honing this set is here:

These interim posts will probably only be of interest to Glen, since he's the only one who knows which razor's are which...

For those who didn't catch the prior threads, I've determined that every one of these is scary sharp, and any differences in sharpness are so minor as to be unnoticeable by me. However, there is a difference in "smoothness & comfort". Although the differences are small they are noticeable.

Note, though, that I would be happy to have any of these, (and whatever stones and strops Glen used on it), as my only desert-island razor for the rest of my life. They're that good. The difference between the final "winner" of this test and the "worst" is so relatively minor that you'd have to be really anal to pick nits that small.

Which, if you've read this post this far, you probably are.
