I just received this beauty in the mail from Al:



I toweled up...added some T&H Ultimate pre-shave while I stropped on linen and leather 40x each, lathered with T&H Ultimate Shave Cream with my small Rooney and made two passes...one WTG and one ATG. I got a BBS in most areas...except for some the of harder to navigate areas. Only a few minor nicks.

Al, please tell me your secret for honing. That was the sharpest razor I have used yet. For the first time in my three or so months of str8 shaving, I actually felt like I was just shaving, not "TRYING" to shave with a stra8. It was a real pleasure.

Thanks Al
