Just gave this one a run on the Chinese12k (or PHIG for Dylan) which left me with a very nice smooth polish on the edge. Good enough to leave it alone now.
I'm usually a one pass shave kind of guy, but have recently been dabbling in the ATG and XTG passes. I feel like a total newbie and extremely uncoordinated when doing these passes, but I just realized tonight this is the most comfortable razor for doing them. I dont know why, but I find it much easier. Even got a few patches I would call BBS

Some great pics already this week.
Have a great final week of 2010 gentlemen.
