I'm a little confused as you indicated you honed the Boker on a 6K and Chinese 12K and it was nice????

In any case, the Boker is a light feeling razor and you need to be pretty vertical with it when using. Personal preference for the feel of razor will play a big part in what you like and what feels good to you as has already been indicated by several of the guys.

Have fun

I don't get the same result from the new Boker. I bought it from SRD so it came well honed and shave ready. I have never liked the way the Boker shaves, it has always felt dull to me. I guess my question is, do some razors just not work for some people but ok for others.

Sorry I posted this in the wrong forum. I don't know how to move it.
