I haven’t honed an SS razor yet, but SS knives take longer for me to put an edge on it.
With my razors I always use a loupe to visually check my edge.

Got the Herder shave ready last night following the burr method with more laps than with my vintage carbon blade razors. I am guessing maybe 100 cumulative laps on 30 micron over two hone process. I was fooled initially thinking the blade was sharp and near shave ready. At the end of the day, I learned something about honing and bonded with another SR.
Today's shave was really outstanding. I am breathing a sigh of relief as I had a made more of an investment in this razor and didn't want something I could not use. The point I think is a SS shave is similar to a carbon steel razor, but it takes a longer time to achieve true shave ready.

I’m sure you would.
There is no difference using between your nose, I have seen many people in this world and not a single has had a 5/8 space between the nose and where the mustache starts. Doesn't matter the size, you will need to "scoop"
