    I have always wanted a "tennis" razor how does it compare to DD?

    No Mike I haven't that's my next job as I've had 8 razors in this week for honing, even though the razor shaved very well just with a good stropping I always think I can up the level by a few notches, so the Tanifuji Fukutaro is going to be aquainted with the Suehiro Gokumyo 20K next week.:)

    Another great shave. I found a great combo, I love this set up. Also goes well with Bur and the Bow. The rest just sit in darkness. Lol

    The key to Stirling soaps I've found is a longer soak period.

    And the tip is way more forgiving than the spike on the Red Imp!
