Interesting. I have read that people can feel the difference between types of hones (and the quality of edge), but never the type of steel. Thanks for the response!Different blades have different feels - like different cars have different rides - like Toyota having a firmer ride than Honda (at least to me). By crisp I am trying to describe how the harder C135 "drives" compared to a softer steel like the stainless steel J.A. Henckels used to make their Friodur razors. To each his own, but I really like C135. That said, I also like the crucible steel that Wade & Butcher used during the middle of the 19th century.
