Ok that made me skip a beat... I'm glad you found a blade combination that works for you, phew. If you have any further thoughts you want to share about your experience or journey in terms of using your Hone I am all ears, I'm here to listen to exactly this feedback.Well it's time to come clean and admit that I have in the last couple of weeks been asking myself,
"Why did you buy the Hone" ??
I don't have, or am likely to buy, a Hone, but am just so impressed with the attention to users' opinions and responses to queries durect from the designes/maker. The thread has been a masterclass in responding to potential buyers. Certainly has roused my admiration.

You are welcome, it's so good to get a response from you, and to see how much this venture means to you.Thank you
I tell you what has just crossed my mind.... The "rough" finish on the Hone that gives it the texture & grip, could this cause the issues that some may be having? I personally love the finish, but I'm just wondering if a polished top cap would help the slip required to get a closer shave for some?
First shave with the Hone. Personna med prep blade and twice mint triple butter from sudsey soapery.@Holyzeus is selling a Hone
2nd shave. Personna med prep again but with P&B Spitfire. This time was much better. Only problem area was my top lip where again several passes missed stubble. I had the same with the Futur which has a similar head so it's definitely my technique with the large head. Shave lasted a good 18 hours before I started to look shabby again so on a par with ej89 or Ikon OSS
Zero irritation and nice tight post shave feel. I put this down to the heat retention of the brass which is the best of any of my Razors.
Impressive for a 1st gen razor but will need some more dialing in before I'm happy with the results.
