Better than I expected for a 80-90 year old piece of carbon steel. Wouldn't want to use it everyday though.

some guys gave tried to strop those old blades, but I think the results were spotty.

Cheers Gentlemen

Many thanks for your kind words Celestino and Dave - wishing you and all other gentlemen here a fantastic Wednesday

Dave: I think the wait is almost over and I have a strong feeling they will be available very soon. I also assume, that Ken has stockpiled brushes, so there is not a big wait involved...

I am sure you have read this already, but just in case:
