Thanks for the kind words. I wanted to repeat the experience, so I shaved with her again today. 2 day growth(which I can't stand) & the same soap. Wow, awesome shave again. I have 2 other razors that need to be honed, a satinedge and a J.A.Henckel 415, but I'm going to savor this one for a while before honing them. I'll report back if I'm successful with either of those two. Thanks again.
