Obie,
Is that one of the new-production TI's? I read on rasage poulin that the factory sharpened TI's these days are shave ready. I'd make a strong case (if these are the razors we're talking about) that based upon your experience this couldn't be farther from the truth.
Ogie.
P.S. I just gave a best man speech this weekend and I had 235 people in stitches.
