I love the worked back on that.
I know Seraphim but like we said "..is better to said im sorry than ask for permition.." She will forgive me...:D .
I got a 6/8 from TI and i realy enjoy shaving with it.Lets see how this work.
RPR.
That's my next planned razor purchase. You beat me to it! xD
If I hadn't already completely overspent that would be the one.

Trust me guys...i can wait to have it on my hands.
RPR.
They are great shavers - I have a similar blade but with antler scales. If you put new scales on it you'll want to make sure they have a bit of heft to maintain balance. Nice purchase :tu
James.
Very nice choice in blades, these razor shave nicely....:tu
Guys,you are turning me crazy with that coments...i want my razor now !!!..:cry:
RPR.

Very Aesthetically pleasing both looking at it sitting on your table, or especially so whilst shaving:tu

I think I read these INOX jobs were kinda scratchy on the face...?
What say ye, gentlemen???
Well, they're harder than carbon steel, that's true. But I've never found mine to be uncomfortable or overly scratchy :shrug:
James.
I've found they are not as silky smooth on my face as some of my better CS blades (I reserve the right to change my opinion about this :w ), but I'm still glad I have one. Great shaver.Quote:

Congratulations!
You'll love it!
I made my scales for that blade out of ironwood........
C utz
I contact Dave for help,maybe he is going to help me for new,nice and better scales than plastic.I think this blade deserve better scales.
RPR.
I'm sure someone here would help you put that nice blade in some decent scales, ask around.
GOT IT yesterday !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:y.Man it feels nice in your hands.I cand wait now for the new sets of scales and honing.
RPR.
Wonderful blade. I want to see it when you replace the scales.
It is really special
Yeah it rocks I've got one like it from the same shop as well. And +111 on the scales bit, they really need to go. I didn't know till a few days ago that people had, in the past, scoffed at using stainless steel. Using it I can't figure out why though.

RPR.
great buy rick!!
^^ Thanks speed...ill post pict if i know/learn how to down loaud them..:rant:
RPR.
i still say it's your pic size. you've got to scale them down. that thing was 1000 something X 757. too big!
^^ So what is the max size to place a pict here ?
RPR.
not sure in a post, but 500 X whatever would be plenty big and acceptable. the profile pic needs to be 100X100 at most.
your scales there are 600X491 for example ^^^
700 pixels is the maximum. In your editor, go to resize image, you should see the X and Y axis size. in the larger of the two (usually the X axis) put in 700 (or less). Most editors default to uniform scaling so it will auto shrink the other axis in the same proportion. Then save as (don’t overwrite your original file just in case you mess up) and put it out on your desktop. Then you should be able to attach it to a post.
