And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Shave of the Day
Chiller badger brush from Wild West
Erik Anton Berg straight
Japanese sharpening stone
Barrister and Mann Vespers soap - about the creamiest soap I've ever used.
Truth to tell, I'm still getting used to it. The grit on it seems slightly coarser than the Arkansas surgical thought, so this particular should sit nicely between my normal medium Arkansas and the surgical. At least that's the plan. I'll keep everyone posted as I come up to speed on it.
I do NOT approve of those brushes!
ReplyDeleteSo how is that Japanese sharpening stone working out? Any better or worse than Arkansas sharpening stones?
