Well this blade is now testing my technique and pressure management. I managed a DFS with no irritation, but the blade is definitely past its prime.
Just when I think the boar stank is subsiding, it comes back with a vengeance. Are there trapped pockets of stench hiding in this knot? What is going on?
The line up today was pleasant. Trouble Maker and Fougère Gothique are both earthy, smokey, and excellent.
