Today, rained last night and the drops are sparkling from the leaf stripped branches. Old razor; lots of work to get past the rusted bevel...worth the effort! Another evening spent with the Zulu hone brought this razor to shave ready. Again a good shave after about 100 laps on leather. DFS in three passes. $3 fru fru from a garage sale was better than its price!

The fun of trying things makes the day go a bit better and quicker!

Things are still a bit crazy up here, got my last day at my current job tomorrow and have spent the last two weeks finishing up as much as possible before I leave and at the same time trying to get the guy who takes over my job as much up to speed as possible. Starting my new job on monday, looking forward to it, and hopefully I get some more time on my hands for SRP soon.

This beauty came in from Australia today, a wicked little bastard, it was a b*@#h to strop, but great fun to shave with Resulted in a wonderful BBS shave.
