Finally sat down with a Norton 1k. After countless circles and rolling x strokes I felt like it was finally sharp enough. The razor would pop arm hairs at the skin, but I have come to the determination that my arm hairs are too fine and above the skin hair popping is just not in the cards.

The shave tonight started out surprisingly well. After a hot shower I used some MWF and went to work. Some areas were money (WTG sideburns XTG mustache), and I got a little tugging going WTG/XTG on my chin and right side of my throat but I blame that more on the lather drying up a tad.

Overall I think the bevel was successfully set and I will try this test on some other more reputable razors I have on queue.
