Seeing that it's St. Paddy's day today, I broke out the Lime Sec.

Bay Rum for me. I'll drink some Irish whiskey to celebrate St. Paddies day but I can't splash on the Lime Sec.
Don't sweat the small stuff.....It's all small stuff!!!

My Magic 8 ball said "Most definitely" to Vanilla today.
Why doesn't the taco truck drive around the neighborhood selling tacos & margaritas???

Had to go Original since today was personally special and Original is like comfort food to me.
Bought a lot off the bay on the cheap to work on honing and restoring. It had a 6/8 Sq point from a company that I never heard mentioned. Forgot the name but nothing special. It's one of the thousands of little companies from the 50-60's (I believe). It is good Solingen steel.
I cleaned it up with some steel wool/WD40, and went to honing. It was my first attempt at setting the bevel and progressing up the grits. At least my first time solo and I didn't have Marty there to fixed up the less than worthy edge I had honed.
I can’t thank Marty enough for his one on one. Totally set me up for success! Progressed from 1k through my 4k/ 8K Norton then finished it on the 8K (taking the advice of others and learning my 4k/8k Norton before I get a finisher).
Big thanks to Glen and Mark for their YouTube on finishing with the 8k—It was helpful BIGTIME!
Went through a CroX-Web-leather stropping progression and BAM! Pretty freaking good shave this morning. Plus, I found out I really like the larger 6/8 vs the 5/8 I’ve used in the past.
Sorry for the long “Clubman Friday” post, but I’m pretty stoked as I sit here and wait for patients to roll in.
Have a great day fella’s,
JerKeep it safe and Cheers,
Jer

Éirinn go Brach!
Kiss o the lime, I'm feelin fine,.
Shall be washin the Jameson down, in double time!
And remember an Irish gentleman is never truly drunk as long as he can hold on to a blade of grass to keep from falling off the earth.
