Without the curves of the Fili, Iberia, or Henckels 14, but with straight lines and a chonky tail, Heljestrand's Swedish steel doesn't care about elegance, it just cuts stubble cleanly, smoothly, and closely: https://sub.wetshaving.social/post/3552981/5643637

I woke up to an email from Ulrik that the #Moarteen s are ready to be shipped. That and a very nice stankening with the smooth Heljestrand 14 this morning. A great start into the day, I'd say.

I switched the razor but didn't take a new picture. The Heljestrand 14 is a wonderful! Great shave. Have a great Friday all.

Heljestrand++;
Black Watch is just as great as I remember it. It has this note that reminds me a bit of Cerberus, and I bet they'd work great together.

The fresh edge on the Heljestrand made a day and night difference compared to yesterday..

After this morning's lacklustre shave, the Heljestrand went on the hone again (full story here https://sub.wetshaving.social/comment/661299) and came back transformed. Smooth and cutting close, a real treat.

I refreshed the edge on this Heljestrand using trailing strokes only, deburring on loaded canvas, followed by normal stropping (This had previously turned my Bismarck into smooth perfection), but this edge feels tuggy by comparison. Back to the hone & hopefully a better edge tomorrow.
I refreshed the edge on this pretty Swede, a #Heljestrand MK Nº 10, for tomorrow's #TabOktoberfest celebration. Looking forward to giving it a spin in the morning.
