Differences between 1/4 hollow ground and full hollow ground
For the past three years I've been shaving with a full hollow ground razor, it's the only straight razor that, until now, I've ever really used. I just honed a 1/4 hollow ground (6/8" or 7/8") to shave ready condition and must say that I prefer the feel of the shave with this razor, it just feels smoother for me. It may also be that my older razor is simply in need of a honing (only been touched up in the last three years, never actually re-honed). I'll give that one a fresh honing and then try to compare at that point.
Still, are there actually shavability differences between 1/4 and full hollow ground? Does one do some things better than the other? I have very sensitive skin and pretty heavy facial hair if that makes any difference.
