That would be the combination Coarse/Fine whetstone from Ace Hardware in Largo, Florida. I bought it about 3 years ago to use until I could afford a 4K/8K. Turns out it does the job just fine so I just never bothered to replace it. Not pretty not fancy but totally effective.

Pre-Shave: Hot towels

Brush: Simpson Chubby 1

Razor: Flaschner 7/8

Honing Regimen: Chosera 1K - Naniwa SS 3/8/12K - Vintage Thuri

Strop: 100/100 Neil Miller Linen/Kanayama Cordovan

Soap: Tabac

After shave: Tabac

Results: Spent a few hours honing today, and test shaving this Flaschner I honed for a friend at B&B, got a pretty nice edge on her, giving a nice and close shave but I''m not sure the Thuri is the right finisher for this razor, I think I will try another one and see if it can tweak it a little bit more.

I finished mine on an Oozuku Suita. I'm sure David will be happy with whatever you use, Rune!

Thanks for the tips guys, I have a few different finishers myself, and with Blix just up the road....well, let's just say there's a lot of possibilities :p

I'm sure he will Bill, when he sent it to me it didn't shave at all, but I won't send back a razor where I'm not 110% satisfied with the edge :)

Yeah, that's a dangerous HAD zone if I ever heard of one! For you two to live within 350 meters of one another is serious trouble!
