Just did a shave test switching off between the two blades. I can't speak for all of this material by any means, but this particular stone is quite capable as a hone. A BBS result. ATG under nose and chin was not a problem. A very lively edge on each of them. Smooth enough to not be annoying, but I would like it to be smoother still and I am chalking this up to unfamiliarity. I think I can get more smoothness out of this stone and maybe a bit more sharpness with some more experimentation. A very very close shave though, which is nice considering I generally don't like german steel and I don't love paper thin grinds like these blades are, but they for some reason are the most vanilla test platform imaginable.
