Thanked: 4207Great question, and dialogue on this thread around grind.
My very first straight was and still is a Boker Extra Hollow blade that cut me more than any others I own. Not knowing any better I presumed it was par for the learning course, but now almost a year and 15 different blades later I see this thread and 'dogh!' makes perfect sense regarding closeness, singing, flex, and honeability as well.
I compare every razor I get to that Boker, in looks, cut, balance etc and it is still the best shaver I own. I have improved my technique to the level where I do not cut myself every time with it, but come closer than any other around the chin and jaw line due to it's flexibility.
My W and B and other larger blades cut well and are great shavers, and right sexy blades, but the Boker just seems more, I dunno,,, surgical in it's precision maybe, if that makes sense..
That's about it for my $0.02.
Cheers
