Jamie.
Well I decided after the last shave to take the Iron Duke back to the stones, right back starting at 1000, on to 5000 then 8000 and finally 12000, finish on my two paddle strops first with a little Chromium Oxide paste mix with a little neatsfoot oil, then the final paddle with a little Dovo paste nothing abrasive, and the biggest compliment i can pay this razor was it actually shaved as well as my Feather Straight razor, the smoothest edge i've seen on this razor sweet. Two pass shave with minor touch up.

This is why we shave!He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.
