Dang Wid, what do you got for me?


Reducing the heard to only the ones I use the most Evan.

Tonight was an old Sheffield wedge that I did for a member. She had an uneven grind, it had been honed very uneven to boot. Had to use two layers of tape to get it to take a bevel, a very uneven one at that. But although not the prettiest it shaved as good as the best of them, took a heck of an edge.

another one I bought from ebay last summer and just got around to cleaning up and honing over the weekend

Cretan hone started the initial bevel correcting...finished with coti rest of the way

Day before I shaved with a pitted Wade & Butcher I found in Feb. this one

ugly as it is, it has to be one of my top 3 shavers, so I knew following this razor, the AJ Wingen had a tough act to follow but that old Solingen edge (Anton Wingen) is a beauty in it's own right


Best,

Thru-etched Gold Dollar 66....these things really take and hold an edge, don't they? Great shaver (how embarrassing)....
