    I have had a few untouched oldies which come to mind. Some which had light or no evidence of hone wear, or major edge issues, They honed up much easier than a new Dovo and shaved like the dickens. A Greaves or two, Wades and Butchers, Elliotts, Pettys, Shaws, Crookes, Old quality Solingens. All with little or no wear. If it is lightly or untouched antique, it seems to go easy and nice!
    Sort of what it would be like to have one new back in the day!
