Famous Double Arrow straight razor. Sharp as a...razor.
Well not so much straight away, but with a little time on the hone and strop, it cuts like a laser beam. After reading about them here and at TSD, i thought i'd take a chance. Fellas (and ladies), it's well worth the $9 US. Replace the supercrappy plastic scales and cheap pins and you will have yourself a damn fine razor. Just my 2 cents.

I bought one.
It takes a good edge and I use it as my guinea pig for all the new (to me) honing stuff I find here.
Beefy blade, I like it.
Good day,
McKie
