I personally test shave each razor before final disinfection. Shave ready is different to each person. Factors like light or coarse beard or beard length come into play. I have a heavy beard and test shave every razor on a two day growth. If razor gives a close comfortable shave I call it shave ready. If it does not shave right I re hone the razor.

Payment due in three days.

Near wedge or quarter hollow?

When a straight edge is placed from spine to edge there is very slight hollow. I would call it a near wedge.
