This is a great wedge shaver. The grind on this Sheffield blade was impeccable. The delicate ivory scales are blemish free and compliment without hiding the blade. A quick touch up on the Spike barber hone and the edge is ready. Hooyah Birnando!

No shave yesterday, I was too busy reading the interesting street signs in Alexandria. I thought we had it all in the NYC area. I do think they have cornered the market on humidity.

Its Fathers Day in Australia and I spent a nice day down here in Sydney, visiting my Father in Law for lunch, then having dinner with my parents and my 2 brothers.
Its been a fun day of catching up.
A very simple 2 pass head shave with the Gem was a relaxing way to finish off the day.

Sorry about the recycled pic, I dont have my camera or laptop with me here,
Have a great week gentlemen and thanks for the great posts and pics

Two wedges that I have honed this morning, the entire job was done within an hour, finaly the old "made for united states" is the better !
