    Used my Klaas again today. Getting it ready for my Christmas shave. It's close to perfect today.

    I showed my nephew who is a second year medical student at UNC Chapel Hill, North Carolina how to wet shave using a Schick Krona. Then I did my straight razor shave.

    I skipped a day of shaving to let a cut heal. I also rehoned my Kawishima that had been NOS. I had been shaving with just 12K off the factory edge. This Kawishima is 1/4 hollow and has the feel of a wedge. Excellent shave.
