That's a beautiful razor and a lucky owner.
May I inquire when the W & B blades marked for Barbers Use with no other markings were produced? I have a 7/8 (no notch) with the identical markings and don't know how old it is. Thanks!

Beautiful work as usual. I really like your satin finishes on these blades especially!

That thing is awesome. Now I'm hankering to go to every antique store in a 150 mile radius of my house to look for razors.

That is really beautiful. I like the color of the wedge, it makes it "pop".
I was surprised by the big leap in your honing progression. I thought that would be too big of a jump but since you did it I might have been wrong about that. Is it harder to get a good result that way? Is it advisable to try that out?
Awesome and I am envious!!

They are Choseras :) which are incredible polishers and cutters and also stupidly expensive, they are fast and accurate and leave very shallow smooth striations, again not really needed...
Basically I like them because they do exactly what I want them to do, they do it very well, very accurately, and very fast, but they are truly a waste of money however because the 10k really isn't a "Finisher" you can force it, but it does way better with and actual finisher after the 10k ...
I love them for me, I don't recommend them all that much for other people, as to the jump :hmmm: I use systems both ways, some like the Naniwa SS (1-3-5-8-10-12) and the Shapton GS (1-2-4-6-8-16-30) I like taking very small little tiny steps all the way through.. Some times I use a 1-4-8, 1-5-8, or 1-3-8 system into a finisher.. I have also done 1k to Finisher and nothing in between :) so no the 1-5-10 system with those hones is rather easy for me...
So yeah I love them and use them quite a bit, but No I don't advise them...
