    Wow, so I got a delivery today, my first W&B. I cleaned it up a bit but mainly concentrated on honing it. I never really honed any smiling type razors. I could not get the heel side straight but the rest honed up just fine. I did a two pass shave which went fairly well. First, The CO Bigelow is really starting to grow on me. I could not stand the eucalyptus smell at first but find it sort of soothing now. When I finished up I had a silky smooth face. When I splashed on the OS I barely had any sting at all. I finished up with the Skincado. I think I am gonna buy a lifetime supply of this stuff. Does not smell divine but it does a great job of reducing any inflammation and healing the skin. Overall, I really liked the razor. I am not sure if it was due to it being a larger size or just because it was a W&B. This was the first razor have used larger than a 6/8. Well, good day gents. As always, great to see all the sweet pics.
