I still need a decent crop of photos, but I'm loving my 7/8 polished in Ebony.
It's beautifully understated and all business!
As an interesting note...I ordered a 6/8, the box says 6/8, but the razor measures a solid 7/8;)

I just joined the club. What a great razor!

I hear you. The Hart square is a really easy razor to use. I have a round also. I have a hard time with conflict over the Hart Round toe...
It shaves like a dream, the round toe cuts the sharpened length down a bit and the result is a nimble blade that is VERY forgiving and gets into the depressions in my neck like only a smiling blade can (or a stubby). Really it is one of my top performing blades....but I do not care for the looks of the round toe, and therefore rarely use it.
How ridiculous is that?
I'm a couple months late to joining as I got this one last year. 7/8 square in cocobolo.
