    Default Smiling , happy, Henckels

    Nice work on all the razors I see here! I aquired these scales sloppily pinned with a Puma. 2 bronze spacers on one side and 1 on the other. Lots of cleaning, sanding, and polishing as well as tightening up loose panels. I tried all manner of blades in them and could not decide. I had a smiling Sheffield in mind and decided this old Henckels 66, in the "Med size hollowground" mold, would do. I smiled it good and went to some light greaseless, polishing. It was pinned metal to metal with Baburs collars, stainless spacers, silver pins, and a nice bevel set. The result is tight and smooth after an easy time honing it(most enjoyable project!). Wonderful shaver! Thanks and.....get it on....Tom

    I am a sucker for Mother of Pearl, and that blade looks like loads of fun to shave.

    No way for me to be objective looking at this, but looks like such a kick, why would I want to be. Looks great, and lines match well
