i have to say that shaving and tomato are different tests.
shaving edge will not fall through a tomato and tomato test will not be the best at shaving. for me, its like comparing apples and oranges. i try to get an edge that will slice tomatoes well and feel really sharp with a three finger test while still having the ability to shave arm hair.
the key is getting all this and having edge retention. to me all this together make for really good sharpening techniques
