    That is a very good looking razor, great work.

    Heard quite a few good things about these, I think I will get one in the not so distant future.

    It'll end up being a workhorse, but not a pretty one like that. I don't remember seeing a spike that had the lettering intact on the scales before, either.

    Very nice job on that one.

    Thanx Mark, this one still has some pitting too. Gotta remember most razors we save are pretty old & a little 'character' doesn't detract from their looks.

    Got one sitting at home still in the packet. Now I know what I can use it for

    Thanx. Pretty impressed with the shave. Works every bit as good as a larger wedge but lighter & easier to use.

    I love the satin finish on the blade. It looks perfect, not really perfect but just what it should look like. I sure like that kind of finish as opposed to mirrored finish.

    I think that those 5/8 ish wedges make some of the best shavers.
