Today I used my 9/16 Salamander $10 razor. It needs to see the hones again though, not that great of a shave. I may take it out of the scales and polish it up a bit too. But, the lazy part of me says 'Why?'. heheheh
8/8ths kamisori made by yours truly out of 01 tool steel.... honed on a translucent arkie with .5micron diamond slurry in oil.... the edge is polished to a mirror.... really impressed with the arkie with oil......
20 laps on the diamond strop..
20laps on latigo strop made by trick420...
mentioned to SWSBO that i was thinking of selling this one... it IMMEDIATELY kissed my bye bye on the left cheek... came back in living room... muted that damn spike point and went to finish a DFS with TABAC...
"Thursday" 9/16ths Spike from my 7 day set. These little wedges are truly great shavers. Very little feedback and smooth as silk. Cut my thumb opening it to strop first thing. I hope that is not how the rest of the day will go!!!
