    For sure.

    That being said, I am part of the gold sadly enough. I have a "few" TI and will continue until caught from SWMBO....

    I have one from the oldest series (with grey horn scales) №177.
    It's great razor, very comfortable to shave with "French nose". As for it's a little bit difficult to hone it and it need a little bit longer stropping. BUT if you hone it right it will give you fantastic shave!

    I'm particularly fond of french nose razors myself. I don't have that TI but I do have a dreadnaught in 7/8 and I love that razor. TI makes fine razors and you'll undoubtedly enjoy that razor if you buy it. I agree with the sentiment that those scales will likely look better in person. I've found that pictures fail to do justice to many a straight razor in the looks department. My Dreadnaught in blue box elder is absolutely stunning but looked mundane in the pictures.

    Hi, this is an amazing razor. I have the same but be careful: the French Point is not the most easy and creates cuts faster than a round point. But this TI is a real masterpiece.

    I use this TI once in a while and for everyday use I trust my Boker 5/8 and 6/8 Silversteel's with round point: excellent (and exclusive) shavers that are saver for me as beginner.
