    Beautiful - how do you find the shave with these? I understand all the Goldedge's are uber thin grinds, almost tissue like, I find these blades very, very unforgiving, so thinly ground that a little miscalculation on another razor that wouldn't result in so much as a nick, with my Goldedge at least, it would result in a good cut - the only blade I own that has cut me each time I've shaved with it except once, a slow, terrifying single pass shave...

    You are right there Andrew a very fine grind and you do need to take your time and always be aware of that point, I did sell a mint Goldedge 5/8 about 12 months ago and that was a fine shaver but you still needed be careful.
