Hi Gents,
I have been straight shaving for a year and have just purchased a Wade and Butcher 6/8 wedge that will come shave ready. It is my first wedge (I have 5 other razors but no wedges). I have bought a set of Spyderco Medium,Fine and Ultra Fine stones, along with balsa paddles with Dovo Red and Black paste, and a paddle with CRo2.
I am told the razor was sharpened without tape, so can you give me an idea of how to keep it shave ready with the above kit. Is there any particular differences in the way you care for a wedge compared to a half or full hollow, and what can I expect from a razor such as the W&B wedge.
Regards
London
