Thanked: 555/8 hop skip jump bleed. 6/8 bbs
Bout fifty shaves in I think. Shaving almost exclusively with two razors. A 5/8 Kropp full hollow and a 6/8 wostenholm full hollow. Kropp been causing me bother so have spent even more time on hones, according to all tests: arm hair. 60× loupe. Treetopping etc kropp is sharper and smoother yet seems to want to stop whenever it meets a hair on atg pass. Then title says it all. Wostenholm just seems to slide on through and give lovely shaves. have also used other 6/8 razors with same ease as wostenholm. do others find the same difference between these sizes?
P.s. am going to sharpen up another 5/8 soon to see whether is just this razor."Ignorance is preferable to error, and he is less remote from the truth who believes nothing than he who believes what is wrong."-Thomas Jefferson (Notes on Virginia, 1782)
