2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


Settantisemo Straightember 32 for me and another refreshed edge. I went back to the Nakayama Maruka Shouhonyama for this one. I've been using the factory Koraat edge on this razor since I received it, and this is actually the first time I've sharpened any Koraat.

The resulting shave was superbe (French spelling and pronunciation). My Koraat 6/8 is custom, but I worked with Ulrik to create a Koraat 13-2.0 -- a V2.0 of the Filarmónica 13 Doble Temple. This razor shaves as good as it looks.
