Tuesday
Excellent shave with the Wade and Butcher this morning, a beautiful smooth edge on this. I learnt so much from the JaNorton thing. I can’t wait to get my Wedge; it’s only a little wedge (5/8 at the widest apparently) but still a wedge. That’ll test my honing skills!
Hope you’re having a good week, guys.

Congratulations to BenjaminBarker and his bride to be!
