I'd like to wade in here, Andrew. I said ' a tad more aggression'. I think 10% is way too much, though 10% of what I'm unsure. I'll say 5% more - any more is 'significant' and not a 'tad'.
@mchaseman Glad your Hone arrived promptly, and that your enjoying it. I would love to hear how you are getting on now after a few shaves?
I also have an owners survey here www.hone-shaving.com/survey if you want. (Its very quick!)
Thanks, Martin.Boy, is it heavy!
It has a minimalist look which is strangely appealing, however, I've not yet bought into the concept of it 'developing a patina' as it were. If I didn't know this was a new razor, I'd say - judging by the way it is wearing - that it was 100 years old. For an OCD-type who likes to keep his razors (and other things for that matter) in pristine condition, this is slightly unsettling but, hey ho, rules is rules as they say so no polishing etc. although it will be interesting to see what, if anything, Andrew @Hone suggests to enable one to keep the razor in 'as bought' condition.
@PLANofMAN That's not a bad option to look intoIt seems to me that you ought to be able to make a 5-10mm spacer for the handle, something that fits between the head and existing handle. It would give those wanting extra length that option, without compromising your original vision for the razor.
@george wow, thank you, high praise. I know the word perfect means something different to everyone, and I'm really glad the Type 15 is able to compete for that slot with you. Hearing that is the encouragement to keep going full throttle on this.I've had a Kai Captain, Mongoose and most of the ATT range amongst others and your first razor has beaten all of them for that perfect razor. I look forward to the Hone 16, please keep up the good work because it is good work!
