Quite pleased with myself today, this is my first edge on a "keeper", i have completed over 20 practice edges on various razors i bought to practice on until i was confident i would not damage one of my "real" razors edges.
Smooth as butter today. 2 passes for a comfortable, DFS++ result.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.
