Well guys,
I gave myself a shave break yesterday and decided to try out a Coticule edge for today's shave. So, last night, I took my C-Mon HF to the Coti (unknown quarry) bout and used to dilucot...

I know Jimmy, I know :boohoo:...you're thinking: "famous last words"

You're welcome
Fortunately, I also involved my wife in picking/choosing the stones and she is totally behind it. Of course, I am going to lay off buying more stones. I have all I need to last me...
