We could even send him our president! That would do the trick! :D ?????
You want to go to war with NZ over razors ? :rofl2:
I think this blade says a lot about the American razor. The American razor does it's job and is crafted for the job it was made for. It brought fine steel into the homes of many men who decided to shave themselves. Not many say " For Barbers Use" but many a barber used them. Many of the razors that came to America were fashioned after those produced here when the sales increased. These razors were made for the men that used them. Men who needed a tool to do a job. Some of the finest steel in the world went into these razors and I have yet to run across one that was bent because the tang stamp was hit so hard. I have yet to see 1 that didn't look like it was made with pride, although modest. How can a Duck lover say all this? Well ,,the Ducks were made to order for the American public. Bresnick was a very smart business man. He knew that if he was going to compete with American made razors he would have to keep his quality top notch and the "bling" and salesmanship which he employed didn't hurt. After the first world war every nation needed work and so he was able to import razors made to his specifications that would have a chance against the American market at the same price point. The Satinedge is made from Swedish steel , ground by German craftsman, with all the fancy brass Europe could mold into a set of scales. To me THAT says a lot about the razors he was competing against. My favorite comes from none of the more popular brands and/or locations. And it pretty much speaks for itself. Even though it has been through many a war and hardship. It will shine again someday. I will make sure of that. It will shine with all the American pride that went into making it. And I am sure it will shave as good as any razor I have used.
If you want to take it away from me, you will have to pry it out of my cold dead (somewhat bloody) hand :<0)
