    Cool Frederick Satin Wedge

    While not mine (it's on loan), I can't get over the quality of shave this razor provides. It just slips across the skin leaving nothing but smoothness behind it.

    It feels totally different to all my other razors (hollow grinds). I don't know what grit it has been honed to, but it must be high.

    Wedges are a different experience when you are used to hollow grinds. A bit of a smile on the blade helps too I think. Nice when you find a razor you really get along with.

    hmmmmm, I was thinking about selling my Wade and Butcher wedge that Glen honed up for me. Have yet to use it. Maybe I need to use it before I sell it, or not as I may be convinced to keep it!
