    066. I did give it a good stropping last night on an Illinois 827, and the edge seems better. I'll find out for sure later today.

    Prep: Shower
    Brush: Semogue Boar OC Cherry
    Soap: Martin de Candre
    Razor: Unknown French Tail-less near wedge 11/16"
    Balm: Martin de Candre Camomile Oil
    Eau de Toilette: Penhaligon's English Fern



    Notes: Super speedy 1-pass shave. Reasonably close and felt very smooth. Could probably have done with another pass. I enjoyed cleaning and honing up this razor, despite a couple of small pits still on the edge.
