Hi,

I purchased my first straight razor 3.5 weeks ago and I purchased a full hollow thinking it may be a little more of a learning curve opposed to the lesser hollows but once I mastered the full hollow I would not have to advance in a razor grind apart from the extra full hollows.

I was under the assumption before I made my razor purchase the full hollows are the best in a close shave and feedback and the preference of an experienced shaver.

But now after frequent visits to SRP I think I may have mislead myself as I notice some razor manufactures are making nothing but wedges and quarter hollows so now I am thinking there must be benefits to these razor grinds as well. Also I notice after reading some posts that these lesser grinds are the preference to some experienced shavers.

So I am wondering if anyone knows of an internet link on SRP or another site that explains the pros and cons of the different razor grinds or if some members may like to take the time to explain?

Thanks.
