    Here is the 15 to compare to the 15 1/4... I forgot I had the one I had seen. :)

    Here is a visual of the grind comparison: 2DE3ED9A-7248-484B-AA18-AE1C5F408BF5.jpeg
    15 on the left and 15 1/4 on the right.
    Looks like the 1/4 hollow grind theory could hold water.
    Enjoy your shave.

    I finally have my Rigarazor! :happy093:

    All I can say is it’s an immediate contender for best shave in my den. Other than failing to mute that point (and adding a nice slice by the ear - how many times have I done that?) it was one of the most effortless shaves I’ve ever had. Clean up was next to nothing. I had to search for places to touch up. A winner all the way around and well worth the wait! :happy036:

    Special thanks to @Keithmax who first suggested I consider getting one :happy088:

    Hot water preparation
    Argan Oil PSO
    Savile Row 3824
    Castle Forbes 1445 Shaving Cream
    Rigarazor 8/8
    Castle Forbes Lavender After Shave Balm

    Happy shaving - Karl
