Thanked: 293I believe my only true full hollow is a Robert Klaas (Germany), and I get my best shaves from it. That's over a Boker Red Injun and a W&B 11/16.
I can't say for sure if it's because it's full hollow, or because it's sharper than the rest, but it's my first razor, it was honed by Sham, and it shaves like a dream. For comparison's sake, my W&B was also honed by Sham -- so the benchmark should be set at even. I would say the W&B is close to full hollow but not quite -- it doesn't really "sing" like the Klaas does when it's shredding whiskers off.
Sorry for my rambling, but maybe my experience matches up with what Seraphim is saying, only that maybe I (contrary to what I originally believed) have a light touch to begin with?
