    Default My new straight from Bill Ellis

    Wow, it arrived today and I really am lost for words..well almost.
    This razor has changed my bathroom from a place to shave to a shrine, my own place to spend time with lots of hot water, steaming towels, great soapy lather and all the little quirks of stropping etc..
    What else can I say, this Henckels is awesome, new old stock, almost too good to use. This baby sure will get my attention that's for sure. Now I have to relax, get rid of the trepidation and enjoy.
    Thanks Bill, this is my first shaveable straight and I'm gonna give it a go tomorrow morning.
    Gary..a very impressed Gary at that.

    That's quite a nice razor. I think you're gonna enjoy it. Watch that square point though. It'll bite you really quick if you don't pay attention.
