I think I'm beginning to like gals with a tan

crappy cellphone pics don't show how dark the two on the right are

(why do I say they are "gals"? they must be, because we lust after every pretty one we see...)

Chase those old gals!

My dark super hard 150yr ole coti is a true contender. Possibly the keenest yet smoothest edge out of all my hones. If I'm not satisfied I know I can take any edge to it for 50 or so laps(it's a polisher on water) and usually be golden so long as the bevel was set correctly.(Usually after a stone fails the shave)

It's what's inside that counts....
