A refresh of my Merkur 7/8 with my coticule and a few laps on pasted strop.

Taking my 7 day set of Heljestrands to the stones
Finishing on different stones so I'm able to choose which finish I feel like shaving with.
In order on the picture: Naniwa 12K, Suehiro 20K, a La Grise Coticule and an Escher; all razors were finished under running water with very light weight of the blade only pressure. Stropped and ready to go.
Adding a paper in my 7 day set to track my data (pre-finisher, finisher and a rating system for how my edge / shave feels) as in the past I had the tendency to forget which razor was finished on what stone

Lot of variables to keep track of. Notes are the way go.

Three high-end razors on the hones yesterday, a complete bevel set on two of them all were finished on a Suehiro Gokumyo 20K.

Jamie-What is that gorgeous razor on top. I love the design, and what wood is that?
There are many roads to sharp.

I'm not sure? though I'll take a guess I would say, African Ebony.
