My Super find honed up in about 15 minutes and shaved so very well. I was seriously going to sell this after honing and a test shave... but it feels so good
So much for that idea

Hot Shower
Glycerin Preshave
Boker Red Injun #102
Semogue 2000
VDH Deluxe
Witch Hazel
Corn Huskers Lotion
English Leather Cologne
The gear this morning was simple as a floor mop but worked like a champ. If you asked me what my initial setup was, this would likely be my answer. The Red Injun was my first ever straight. There are a couple razors in my rotation that just betray logic. You'd think as the number of shaves since the last honing increased, the crispness of the edge would decrease. Doesn't seem so for this razor, in fact the more it gets stropped the better the shaves seem to get. English Leather was my Dad's go to in Fall and Winter, I really can't wear this stuff without fondly remembering him. Here's to ya Pop!
The older I get, the better I was
