Second shave with the Dubl Duck Goldedge back from @gssixgun, after he honed it. Before I shaved with it the first time I looked at the edge on the Goldedge and compared it to my Special #1, which I stropped, a lot, under magnification, to see the difference in edges. My edge on the Special #1 looked good in comparison so I'm now not worried about stropping the Goldedge. I stropped it for 30 laps on my bench strop, after shaving with it the first time, and gave it 10 more before today's shave. It popped hair off my arm so my stropping was good, woo! Lathered up the Jack and off we go. Wow, very sharp and smooth, thanks Glen. I like the round point a lot. Very light pressure and no pull or drag. Getting better and a little closer doing most of my face using both hands and adjusting my angles. finished with my Goodwill and only needed 1/2 pass. So my stropping technique is good, which makes me glad, as I didn't hurt the edge. Nice cucumber smell with the WH, and then some soothing JB Gel. After cleanup some Old Spice Lime original Shulton cologne. Great shave, and I love this Duck!
