Flaschner Family Tree touch up

Pulled this baby into the rotation last night and decided to touch it up for today's shave.
Uchigumori base stone with Oozuku nagura  20 X strokes
                                         Hard Uchi nagura 20 X strokes
                                     on Water 40 X strokes
 35 linen
40 leather 
20 palm

Shave Report:
Perfect! Sharp and smooth Two passes with just the one blade, quite a rarity for me these days. Had the Sham Wedge out just in case but didn't need it. Sweet.

That Uchigumori is an amazing stone and when used with various slurries always creates an amazing edge.
