    I have two Hart Steel blades and enjoy them, truly some 'heavy' steel.

    Thank you. I am amazed by the condition of this razor, and it is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I honestly don't know which I am enjoying more, the razor or the process of learning to sharpen it with the stones I have. After three sessions on my hones, I got it pretty comfortable. Used a different Cattaraugus today. Something about these old American straights.

    Follow up shave to yesterday's initial use of this Wade & Butcher Wedge. Last night I finished the razor on @cubancigar2000 Lou's Suehiro Gokumyo 20k. Yesterday's shave was close but a bit harsh. This morning's shave was considerably smoother. Three pass BBS shave with no harshness. :)

    40 laps on the Suehiro Gokumyo (SG20k) led to a very smooth, comfortable result.
