This razor was starting to tug a bit last week. So I went 10x on 16K, 10x Crox on felt, 20x 0.25 diamond on felt and 100x on Leather. This took an 8.5 blade to 10.0. BBS in 1 pass with touch ups on neck and under chin.If I had six hours to chop down a tree, I'd spend the first four sharpening the axe. - A. Lincoln

I have been watching my nephew while my sis is in the hospital. I decided to take a nice slow shave today. Payed off well and livened my mood some. I hate it when I wake up on the wrong side of the sofa.From their stillness came their non-action...Doing-nothing was accompanied by the feeling of satisfaction, anxieties and troubles find no place
