Set the bevel with a Shapton Glass 2k, and then created a medium density slurry. Worked down to near water before cleaning razor and stone and beginning again with lather. Lots of laps until the entire edge felt icy smooth. First shave with the old rattler in the morning!

Thanks! Not my handiwork. They are one-piece Desert ironwood, and look even better in the hand.
Reset the bevel on a Glass 2k, and then on to the suita: tomo → asano → mikawa. Lovely session!
