    Congratulations!
    Now....who is Tony? What you have is a Lynn honed razor. Pretty much the standard for a well honed razor.
    Enjoy your shaves!

    Hey Bill,

    Tony Miller is from www.wellshavedgentleman.com

    Worth a look if you are in need.

    He was highly reccomended from the guys on the forum and I have to say they were right, he shipped out fast and the strop is awsome!

    This is so true, I have been doing it for 6 months and I still occasionally get a weeper, usually its do to a small surface imperfection, but the corner of the mouth can be tricky sometimes.

    Congrats and good luck

    Ahh surface imperfection, thats what you call it. I had one of those today, not too bad just a weep.

    I did my first XTG shave on my neck today, WOW how smooth it was!!!

    This is the best support forum site I have ever seen.

    Thanks to all.

    This is GREAT!!

    Well done on persisting by adjusting your grip and angle!
