    Thank you. I will shave with it tonight and give a run down tomorrow, however in terms of balance its balance point is right at the pivot pin and feels nice to hold.

    Just shaved with the razor, shaves beautifully.

    Hones were; bevel set with Chosera 1k, then Norton 4k/8k and finished with a Sigma 13k.

    Stropped up on my MickR Roo strop.

    Very happy camper.

    Bloody beauty Stu. Love it mate. I didn't see that one at the last get together...Or if I did, I had my eyes shut at the time . I did see what I think is going to be your number two razor, and I reckon that one is a bloody beaut too. Well done mate.

    Thanks Mick. Glad you like it. This one and the next were at the heat treaters at the last meet. You saw number 3, which hasn't left for the HTs yet.

    HOLY SHIT! What a fantastic job you have done on that razor Stu, superb, i'm inspired just looking for the right blade.

    Yeah that is a pretty blade. I really like the tail, very cleaver, um... I mean clever. Took a moment to see how you did that. Hope you don't mind if I copy that in the future.
