    I had my reservations with this oddly shaped instrument. The heavy weighted spine and the protruding toe, but my Lord this is truly a great razor. I've been doing this for a very long time, and tried many many peoples edges, but I'd put Toms honing over everybody's including mine. He is by far the best PERIOD!!!
