Thanks!
Hht is not an indicator. Many of us have done the 1k challenge. Shaving with a razor that has had no more than the bevel set properly. You can get a good comfortable shave and it would pass tree topping and hht tests. We consider 8k truly shave ready so there is a big difference between shaving and shave ready.

Check out the Gssixgun videos on YouTube. You will soon haa good knowledge of the basics of honing.
