      As a veteran scuba instructor, I have touched dozens of sharks with my bare hands. Every one had very rough skin, like medium sandpaper.

        Indeed. Placoid scales are a defining feature of Elasmobranchs.

        I don’t know what to tell you, I’m petting a shark right now and it’s like touching silk. In both directions, couldn’t be smoother
