    Ok, guys here is another straight razor but this one needs some TLC.
    I want ed to test, one more time, the natural Northern light at 1:30 pm.
    Let me know what you think of the lighting.

    I think the lighting is fine. Is it filtered through a sheer curtain or similar, it looks pretty soft.
    Also it is a nice razor. Looks like it hasn’t seen much action, and just one tiny blemish.

    No filter of any kind was used, except it was an overcast day.
    Thanks for the comment.

    Good condition. Wedges aren't my thing, and yeah G&F has a checkered reputation but knock on wood, I have never had a bad one. I think they are underrated and you have a nice looking one there. Your light is fine. Pretty decent pic.

    Awesome, Randy! That's the old G&F which is of high quality and in a 'modern grind' wedge model.
    Truly an excellent shaver.
    Enjoy!

    Ah the old cloud filter. A light curtain may do well for more direct sunlight, just to cut any glare.
