Happy shaves,

American products co. Its beautiful and got it for a steal. Perfect shape vintage razor.
I used it and it was blissful. But I didn't have my sttop yet so I haven't since. The Hibbard was nice but needed stropped, honer didn't strop, and its really hollow so ... I'll use the new ones tonight. Looking forward to using e wedge. I've been using a shavette so I'm excited to use a real straight again! Also looking forward to using the bay rum soap.

Left to right /\/\ so the top left is the Hibbard Spencer Bartlett co. Got a small nick and I will try to remove it and then shave. I dropped it...
Edit: the unknown however is sharp and the little blade was great for tough spots. Kinda just had to have it... I don't know why, its used up so damn bad. But hey its had a crazy life I'm sure.Last edited by showmeshiner; 01-09-2014 at 12:48 AM.

Shaved with the prosperity wedge and liked it. Did the other side with the LF&C "universal" and it did great. In did second WTG pass on opposite side with each. Both performed well. Put em in the line up and we'll see which one I get best with. New colc soap did OK, I think I gotta get used to it. And of course what's a shave without a yuengling lager.
P.s. I'm new so I didn't get a dfs or anything... but I cut hairs on my face and didn't cut myself.
