That stand is nice Jeff! Jonathan Crookes Fine India Steel, soap was MdC rose lathered with a Zenith boar, and D.R. Harris Pink finished up a fine Sunday shave.
Yes sir… looks to be a black backing with the abalone acrylic sheet on top. Looks pretty nicely done.
Shave from earlier in the week. Some minor roughness showing up on the toe. Hmm, not the hone job as it just came back three shaves ago. I’m going to smooth them out and see what progresses from there.

Part way into today’s shave I was thinking that this was the best shave this Wonderedge has ever given me. And it was. Further in I realized that I shaved yesterday and was only removing a day of stubble vs the usual two or three.

Thank you Gary. My favorite thing in that set up is probably the loom strop. I really like his design with that.

Thanks, Karl! I really like the way it shaves. I’ve been spoiled by my Japanese and Swedish razors. I just wish it held an edge a bit longer.
