Thanked: 1072Glad to hear everything went well, and congratulations on that beautiful new razor
hope the day goes well mate. Enjoy the R & R.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
No shave for me today. Some truly fantastic posts in the last 24. The worst thing about the new job is only getting to check in with SOTD once a day when the kids go to bed. I had gotten used to checking every few hours.
Have a great day boys

Monroe, I'm sorry I totally missed the comment about your birthday! I wish you the very best in the coming year!

Thanked: 72Razor: Original Bartmann 89 Solingen
Strop: Old Traditional Natur
Brush: TI superbadger
Soap: D.R. Harris lavender
AS: Avene soothing hydrating serum
Strokes: WTG, ATG
Result : I'm still trying to get consistent results with my honing, altho the razor felt very sharp and gave me a couple nicks, the shave felt a little rough.
Altho I did rush my prep a bit, the razor didn't feel quite up to par yet.
After my shave I used my little combo coticule for some more honing and felt something different. Eventually on the coticule with water it felt like the razor was gripping the hone rather hard, also afterwards on the strop the razor felt like it was gripping the strop. After stropping the HHT performed great, the razor feels sharp and smooth. So let's see what our next shave brings
And a happy birthday to jhenry!Last edited by jasp; 06-30-2011 at 12:17 PM.
