Razor Joseph Elliott 13/16 "Fine India Steel" Wedge
The shave with this newly acquired antique razor was reasonably
! I was surprised by how long is the edge during stropping, it's more than 3in. Would like to put the edge through the pasted balsa progression but am unsure how since it's a wedge. Let's see how it goes. Managed a quick 3passes without any issues for a mostly ccs to dfs result.

Razor Wade & Butcher 13/16 Wedge
The more I use this antique razor the more I realize the edge is good but my techniques needed to be better. Today, the razor gives a super smooth and comfortable 3passes for a respectable dfs/ccs result without any irritation or weepers. A very enjoyable shave!
