Shave; 1st shave with the Iwasaki since honed by Dion at DC Blades, who I reached out to after continually poor shaves, (well done mate) I had been using this unaware from factory not a honed edge, wondering why after 12k, stropping, balsa progression etc shave quality not improving, now WOW. A learning curve, hopefully only linen/leather for now and occasionally the Naniwa 12k?
