    This was my first razor, which has just undergone an overhaul. I gave it new scales and hand sanded the blade. On Friday night I honed it from bevel set up to a Coticule then Thuringian. I could not be happier with tonights shave. 3 passes BBS.
    Quite probably the best edge I have ever achieved.
    Here's the restoration thread for anyone interested http://straightrazorpalace.com/custo...l-invicta.html
    Hope you all have a great Easter and great shaves.
