It was like adding butter to a well done slice of toast
The result?
on another ho-hum addition to your meager collection!

It will most definitely get used on my head-shaves as well.
I do enjoy a bigger blade when shaving the knob!

Today's time out consisted of:
G. Felix 5/8 / VDH + Sir Irisch Moos / 24mm WillN Silvertip / Humphreys AF WH / OBR Sandalwood
I've taken this one back to the 12k for a polishing this morning. Oh, what a glorious shave it was. One pass would have been enough after 2 days growth, but I love this old beater so much I had to do 2 just to use it a bit longer. Went right from the stone to the shave den, stropped, showered and shaved. Cleaned it up and brought it back out to set it next to this amazing polisher. Nothing beats an edge straight off the 12k, at least nothing I've done so far!
Enjoy a fabulous Wednesday friends, it's hump day!! Downhill to the weekend!!
