    nahh, far too big for my taste. i prefer 5/8, nicer proportions. but an MK 31 in tortoise shell, that would be the bee's knees...

    My 31 and 32 feel more hollow than my 33. Turtle and ivory are beautiful but what stress to remove, re-pin and tighten!

    I never shaved with one, just saw a 7 day set at a meet. I really like the 32's for shaving.

    Anyone ever heard of a Swedish brand Die Weisse Vogal. I've been looking at different razors and saw this name.

    sounds german to me: "der weisse vogel" would be correct. it means "the white bird".

    I'm confused. Are we talking about razors from Switzerland or Sweden? There are several well known brands from Sweden, but they are not Swiss.
