To be honest, nothing it came in with a perfect edge, no matter what razor comes my way it will always have my edge regardless who honed it.

Dave's was the exception. It was one of the earlier ones.
It was a small overlook in grinding. He said they needed honed back a bit more to get past the over hardened edge.
It's been resolved since then.
When Dave's showed up, I about crapped myself. I'd never seen, let alone hone a 10/8ths Razor. The spine is so thick, I had to use two layers of tape...one down each side of the blade, with the edges centered on top of the spine. A massive chunk of steel, but incredibly well balanced and made. It flowed so smoothly on the stones....so heavenly.
But talk about hard.!! That tungsten is something...
And the shave....like a hot knife through warm butter.
I think Dave said , like using the spine to wipe off the lather.Last edited by outback; 01-01-2018 at 10:40 PM.
