    The biggest reason I got the Rose steel one was because I didn't have any Sheffield razors in my collection.

    I saw the Perfecto and almost bid on it myself. Those should clean up nice. Let us know how they shave, will ya?

    Will do. Wish I had 'em to take on my trip. I'm carrying all 11 I have. Maybe I can do some trading.

    The Clauss I won a couple weeks ago had the same kind of grease on it when I got it. After a little clean-up (mostly soap and water and some Metal-Glo), it looks almost new. Shaves nice, too.

    Finally got around to shaving with these two, and they're the best shavers I have. The Perfecto has some nice bone handles. The Barnsley Sheffield is the single best shaver I have...even better than my new Dovo. Not really wild about the plain black bakelite handles, but they're thicker than normal, and the razor is very well balanced. I love the Perfecto, too. If I have one complaint about it, it's that it doesn't have jimping on the shank, which I prefer on my razors. Neither razor shows any signs of honing, good or bad (except what I did myself), and outside of a little staining on the blade, are as good as new. I got lucky. These rounded out my 7-day set (of really good shavers). Now, I gotta get to swapping some. I have a pathological aversion to keeping things ...I always seem to be trying something new. Maybe that's why I'm so friggin' poor... Still wanting a Wade & Butcher. XMan's got about the most perfect one I've ever seen in the User Gallery section (you know...the one with the rosette pins and ironwood handles)

    Boy it sure is a shame that I usually don't go over $5. Those are some nice razors. Good deal.

    Yeah, I know what you mean about tradin' stuff and trying new stuff. It gets really expensive when you start dong it with wives.

    I love that WB of X's too. I bought a few identical blades and have restored one of them to a carnival-mirror finish. I have not yet decide on scales yet. Love the shape though.
