Picked this frameback up the other day. Been looking for one and I am a fan of GW razors, win, win right there. She shaves wonderful too

Nice!
The key to those is to get them bad-sharp. Strop, young man! Sheffields with a blade that size usually have lots of weight to them.
That style is really light. Gravity does not effect them as much, FME!

I rest my case.

The razor took quite a nice edge, finished on a translucent arkansas stone. It shaves more like a wedge with not a lot of feedback, a silent whisker killer.

I suppose these are a grind like a wedge for certain. Just lighter! Enjoy!

Got a couple of these types of frameback, very simple design, a solid piece with a frame added to the spine to get the correct angle for honing, with very little grinding, wedge like, silent shavers and very light.
