Got these River Lakes early on for honing experience..the Black one just clicked for me and the stainless was a stubborn piece of something one may find in the grass at a dog park...
Anyway, after being cast aside for some time, I went back through the stainless one today and finished on a Pierre La Lune VS the black one, which has a Black Ark edge with a few shaves on it.
The stainless one was a little keener and smoother, but it has a fresh edge..so I'm considering it a successful endeavor.

The C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream lathered well with SlimGem Synthetic brush.
