I am fairly new to straight razors and have a Hart Steel quarter ground 6/8. My local sharpener told me that since my facial hair is not especially coarse or dense looking, he thinks I would probably get a easier, closer shave with a full hollow ground and that stropping a full hollow is easier. I did have my eye on the Dovo Flowing 6/8".
Any thoughts on the benefits or drawbacks of quarter vs. full hollow?
