Great Shark buddy. For a second, I was wondering what you meant by PS's death. Then I realized it's the singer you were referring to. Not familiar at all with her music.

I thought the picture needed an explanation, but it's more of a middle-aged British ex-punker thing.

Wednesday:



Klas Törnblom "X"; New Forest 2201 silvertip; Tabac soap and aftershave.

Part two of the honing test. This one got the coticule finish, whereas yesterday's Shark was polished on the mystery hone in this pic:



What I expected was an inconclusive result, but in fact the Shark comfortably trounced the Törnblom in terms of crispness and comfort, leaving me wondering just what this hone is. There's nothing much to say about it, except that it's a good deal softer than say a Thuringian, and could use lapping again on something finer. So today's shave was pretty good, but not outstanding, and I picked up my first shaving cut of the year

No, I was just happy to notice that the edge on my latest Berg seemed fine as it was

So, you're the one who snatched this "Horny Maxterpiece", LOL? She is a beautiful blade. No one does horn like Max.

Thank you. This one caught my eye and I tried to not jump in. My RAD for the best of me.
