Might fine work Bob. Very nice. Anyone would be proud to have this one as one of their regular shavers I would imagine.

A few years back I received a personalised bone scaled swayback in the post. Bob's note said he wanted the razor to go to a good home.
Not only was I impressed by Bob's generosity(As this kind of thing usually dosn't happen to me), but I was very impressed by the shave quality the razor gave. In fact I knew I had to own another and the wait began.
I prefer the bigger blade and Bobs style is right up my street, the balance and heft is spot on for me.
The grinding is also very impressive, I would say almost full hollow on the green abalone, bevel is really thin.
I own a few top notch shavers by which I benchmark everything else I own amongst which include a filli and W&B. Having touched up the edge to my favourite stone to comapare like for like, I have to say that this razor shaves every bit as good as my best razors.
For someone who wants something unique and personal I cannot recommend the quality of these razors enough.
Bob is also very generous with his knowledge and the razor on the right is a work in progress made so far using the stock removal methods that Bob has taught me.
I'm delighted with the razor.
Thanks Bob
