    Yes they are right up there with the best of them IMO. Old barbers I used to ask about razors twenty years ago used to recommend FWE right along with Dubl Ducks as their preferred brands. I have a few and they are all superior shavers.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I think I will make it my travel razor as its very light weight and as it seems lower maintenance compared to my other razors.
