Results: I had not shaved with this Japanese Kikuteru for some time now. To remedy the situation, I refreshed her edge using the CrOx balsa strop (the honing had already been done some time ago using regimen outlined above). The M&F brush is huge, but I really love this size brush now http://badgerandblade.com/vb/images/...ys/001_wub.gif...She handles quite nice. She had a blast dancing in Al's shaving creme. She whipped up a heck of an überlicious lather:y. The pre-shave preparation was just "perfect". The Kikuteru wiped the whiskers effortlessly. Quite a smooth shave indeedhttp://www.foroafeitado.com/foro/ima...ies/banana.gif . |
