The razor is top notch. A well respected name here on SRP.
The soap has to go, get some better stuff. Your face will say thank you.
Ya, be sure to get a strop and a better brush.
You did good,:)
FWE is right up there with Dubl Duck IMHO. The one you picked up looks very nice and will undoubtedly make a great shaver.
Thanks Randy I'll do just that.
That's great to know. I had no idea it was right up there with Double Duck in quality. The fellow who sells them test them as I mentioned before then strops them one last time before shipping so it should be good to go when I get it.
No, it will not be good to go. You must strop for 30-50 roundtrip laps on a plain leather hanging strop just before each shave. It makes an enormous difference. I am not joking about this. Hopefully, others will chime in on this point.
No honing is what I meant. I found out last night how much difference a strop makes. I'll for sure do that before every shave.
That is a real beauty!
I will trade it for a razor with maintenance-free plastic scales, any day:rofl2:
Thanks Flyboy:-)
Yeah, you did fine. That was me you beat out in the last 30 seconds. Computer froze up or I would've had you. Good buy, I think. Use it in good health.
ooops----Thank you.That's my first razor. Darn PC's are always doing that. I changed to a Mac several years ago and never looked back because they work great and never lockup. My second job was as a computer science teacher and I taught on PC's but used Macs---irony:-)
