    Cool Blissful humbling experience

    Gentlemen,

    Look no further ! I_and only I_can possibly claim I had the shave of the day !

    I had the delight to shave with my latest acquisition (please see pic) for the first time, namely a Big A...8/8 Graham (Solingen) Glen recently restored and dressed with new scales.

    Not only is she sexy as hell, but she shaves like a dream !

    And, yes, a humbling experience...LOL ! I thought I'd somewhat figured out how to hone...Obviously not quite !...

    Thanks and kudos again Glen for a phenomenal job !

    Glad you liked her...

    Ya know, those smart old farts that put her together in the first place helped just a bit in how smooth that razor shaves

    Well, You must surely be convinced! Your own thread! I tried that once, by accident. Did not last long, tho. NICE! Love the hammer and anvil as well.

    That is nice, honestly one of my personal favorites of Glen's work. I hope you enjoy.
    One of the most amazing aspects of Glen's honing is watching it happen right in front of you. He goes from chipped to scary sharp in about 15 minutes while still passing it around for a bunch of guys to ruin his edges between each stone.
