    Friday morning:



    Martin de Candre Shaving Soap
    Rooney 3XL
    unknown German Razor from Solingen 5/8
    Boots Bay Rum

    Very relaxed shave. This razor has given me long headache. With artificial stones (Naniwa) it did not sharpen. Since I use natural stones (Japanese water stones, Thuringian Slate), I get a pleasant sharpness even with this knife.
    I suspect a hardness error. Again and again broke tiny particles from the cutting edge. The fine grain mix of natural stones is likely to prevent this error.

    Have a nice day!
