The Joseph Rogers is one of my favourite razors and I think it is at the point now that Carl mentions, recently honed and after 3 or 4 shaves is really smooth, no dragging at all this morning, resulting in a really smooth shave. I initially thought I would not be able to use this razor on my beard but after a few trips to the hone it is tuned in nicely now

They weren't kidding when they advertised 'Carbo-Magnetic'! When I set the bevel on my 325DMT you could feel the magnetism in the razor drawing it to the steel.
Another great 3 pass shave to start the week.
Have a Great Monday Gents!
