Thanks! I’ll definitely need to hone mine, it’s explicitly sold as not shave ready.

Assuming that the geometry is squared away, and it most likely is, the Swedish steel used for that razor should take a great edge. Let me know how it goes.

I’ll definitely let you know! I also have a WB FBU incoming, so it’ll be two new smiling blades for me :)

Fun times! I’ve been looking for the “right” W&B, Rodgers, or Greaves 8/8 FBU for a long while.
