    It is just left over soap, water and patina. it's not a pristine mirror finish on the blade but its just cosmetic. no cracks, though I did run and double check because it does look like it!

    yeah, the edge does look like it has some chipping but there isn't - an optical illusion for sure.

    This razor is so awesome, I so enjoy using it!

    I need to learn how to take better pictures. I learn that after I learn to shave!!

    Anyway,

    Hot shower
    Warm oil
    Hand made Badger
    Hand made ceramic bowl (daughter)
    Castle Forbes SC (finally getting it to lather well, now I understand)
    Wade and Butcher, Notch, honed by Dylan stropped to death by me.
    AOS Aluminum
    Osage Rub
    Vaseline for men

    Great shave again. Getting better at the stropping. Tonight 40 laps felt, 100 leather. Nice and slow and watching my technique. Damn if it don't work!! Passed the BBT with flying colors.
