    I really like this strange blade (made in Japan, Germanish name and prob. Swedish steel) and how she shaves. Very refreshing all the way.

    Default Art of Shaving

    Prep: Hot towell
    Scuttle: SRD
    Brush: TGN Custom Silvertip Premium A
    Uberlather:AOS Sandalwood cream, AOS Sandalwood soap, 5 drops glycerin
    Strop: SRD Premium IV English Bridle 25/50
    Razor: Wade & Butcher "For Barber's use"
    Aftershave: AOS Sandalwood ASB
    Result: I took the W&B back to the hones (yet again) last evening. I reset the bevel on a 1k, did pyramids on 5k & 8k, then did slurry diluting to water on a vintage thuringian. The blade provided a close, comfortable shave this morning (shaved around the slice from yesterday). The AOS Sandalwood uberlather was creamy and the smell was hypnotic. This is going to be a great start to my Saturday!

    Have a great Saturday gentlemen, you've earned it!
