    Yes that alway's helps doesn't it. I set the bevel on a 1k followed by Norton 4k and 8k. After that my Jnat with 3 different naguras. Because the blade is wide at 8/8" I used two lots of tape. The shave is very smooth and I took to the blade size surprisingly easy - although I'm glad I muted the heel. I know a lot of people have extreme points at both ends but I just get the feeling that it's easy for one of them to bite whilst you're watching the other one.

    Thanks for the comments.

    Just to make this clear and avoid Bruno receiving lots of pms - the blade was offered for sale in the classified section - not donated.

    Great looking razor! Scales and blade both look nice, and I'd also be afraid of the point on that heel. I keep a goatee and use the heel extensively around it, I'd have to take extreme care with that point
