    JrJoeD and I restored the Fredrick Rodgers and what looks to be John Wat..., maybe Watt. Rodgers got a grind and buff. It also had damaged scales that we restored while keeping some of the patina (bug bites) intentionally. Hope to have it in show and tell today if we can get to take pics. The Watt's was just buffed and honed. Both razors were finished honed on a very fine grained CF gifted to us by Oldengaerde. An excellent edge and the CF will now be part of my honing lineup. Thank you Oldengaerde!

    Prep: Hot shower
    Brush: Shavemac 23mm Silver tip
    Strop: SRD Bridal - Love this strop. My other strops are getting neglected!
    Shave Cream: Truefitt and Hill Trafalgar
    Razors: Test shaves with Fredrick Reynolds 8/8s and John Watt 6/8s Both near wedge. Finished up with w Henckels Friodur 7/8s as the holiday razor

    AS: Grey Flannel Blue

    Results: - JrJoeD and I both shaved with all blades and we couldn't ask for anything more. Great shave!!
