    Last shave of the year. Touched up my dubl duck that had a jnat edge. Wanted to do a bit of practice honing on my smaller stone so went to the coticule. Was a great last shave for the year.

    Bevel recovered with 3 layers, and a 1000 Chosera and Naniwa dressing stone. Then removed one layer and moved to a Washita, then a slurried med grade Thurigan, diluting to water. Then a heavy slurried B/G Escher, diluted to water.
    Cr/Ox pasted strop, leaded linen strop, Russian Tanned and a Roo to finish. Popping arm hairs, and don't even feel it. SHAVE ON !! Gents.

    Been quite awhile like over a year since I had a honing session for me with multiple razors which are all mine, so since it was a tad chilly out and nothing to do I took advantage of some spare time and did a full progression on all.
