    I don't need to try it to tell you that as far as shaving with it goes, it's worthless cr@p. If you're after something to open your post with, however, i'm sure it will suffice.

    This razor took triple honing before being sold. Knowing that razors hardly ever come shave-ready out of the box your have ask yourself: how often do I want to hone before use?

    Anyone told Joel yet?

    I bet he will be thrilled to discover that someone is selling junkers that bear the initials of his website / community Maybe they could organize a group buy

    Come on now guys, let's not be too hasty. It might be worth the money. It really depends on how nice the pouch is!
