He was one of the funniest buggers I ever knew. Enjoy those razors. If they could only talk, the stories they would tell.
Enjoy your future meetings and thanks for posting.

Mike, was the AIDS scare and the hygiene laws that followed totally to blame for most barbers no longer shaving customers around the neck and ears with a straight, or did barbers just decide that they could give more haircuts by skipping it?
