Awesome shave this Thursday morning.
Still on my autumn/winter scent theme.
Pulled-out the trusty ole Shapleigh “Diamond Edge”..
Cheap blade (purchased for about $10.00),, but definitely one of my sharpest edges. Love the shape of the blade, and the sharpness is one of my top 3.
Great shave this morning. Effortless baby-butt smooth shave.
Tackling the day with pizazz.
Straight: Shapleigh “Diamond Edge”
DE: Carbon Shaving CX-316L (head shave)
Lather: Southern Witchcrafts “Samhain”
Balm: Wholly Kaw “Bare Naked” (Unscented)

I wish I knew. My dad bought a sharpening business back in the 70s and this was one of the things with it. As kids he told us, "Don't use this for knives or this because it is for sharpening razors."
Here is a thread about it:

I'm still trying to figure it out. Nice, long, ponderous laps.
Very interesting. :)

Speechless but I have one question.
How does this soap manage to hold a gallon of water on my face yet disappear instantly when water hits the blade to rinse?
Peter must be an alien.
