Prep: Hot Shower / Very Hot Water Soak
Razor: 6/8 Ontario Cutlery, 11/16 Hamburg Cutlery Co.
Hones: 3" Big Daddy Felt/Chestnut 75/200 each
Brush: 24mm Pure Badger C/O Whippeddog
Uber: TOBS Sandalwood
AS: Alum Block Then Humphrey's 'Sensitive Skin Formula' Witch Hazel
Edc: Old English Black + Cuba Gold
Result: I re-Honed these last night during the superbowl using my Norton 4/8k, C12k finisher followed by 20 on diamond felt then 40 on CrOx paddles. I worked very hard on them this time, taking extra time and effort to get a mirror edge. The time and effort paid off with a DFS using them both today. Last shave left me pretty torn up and bumpy, so back to the hones they went. This time smooth as silk and no sting on either side. Both razors are going to be much more in demand from now on. Oh, and A big thanks to Nicknbleeding for the Hamburg in bone scales. That razor is one sweet blade, hard, hard steel and a real pleasure to own, hone and use. Thanks Rene!!!
