No, definitely had enough body - not too much though. Personal preference is slickness over thickness, so usually add a fair amount of water, and I dont usually lather to the Pavlova point. Have you tried TFS?

Yes. Not very good..

Post 1890 McKinley tariff Wade and Butcher 4/8” with “monkey tail/ AC Feather SS

I've always enjoyed using these more narrow (less popular) blades. This one has the solderless design and "monkey tail" which makes it unique. I used tape to hone so as not scar the spine. It has always been a good edge. I used it for the first and second pass, WTG and against.
