I did not have to work today. I am now on my way to my favorite Diner to get a large bowl of Onion Soup. One of my favorite things to enjoy on a cold day.

Beautiful shave Jeff. That onion soup sounds very very good. Hope you enjoyed it. How was New Year's eve and the crowd control?

I finished restoring this razor weeks ago, but it was one of those razors that was such a PITA to hone that I put it down in frustration and walked away several times. Until finally finishing it off last night.
Result: Worth the frustration, 2 passes and it shaved beautifully. BBS. Very satisfying to give this thing its first shave for probably decades and get such a good result.

Hope your all as satisfied as I am.
