Thread: Is my razor sharp enough? HHT says NO! Your thoughts?

I think the HHT is valuable for me. However, I have calibrated the test to such a degree that it yields meaningful results for me. HHT3-5 has shaved well for me (usually a HHT-4 guy). That's not to say that razors that won't pass the test won't shave well. I just use that as an indicator that I'm ready for a shave test.

I think it can be something that you work back to as well. Develop a procedure with a great shaving razor that yields positive HHT results and then you might have a meaningful test for you.

Obviously, it's not the be all end all, but I wouldn't be too quick to dismiss it either.

EDIT: I calibrated it based on a little help from my friends
