    Anyway, my current "it" razor is my Dubl Duck Satinedge.

    I have plenty top shavers and I would say a toss up between my Genco 'Easy Aces' but my pick would be Henckels Twin Works 401.
    It's just the right blade size, grind, weight, ...
    Both shave equally well.

    Gorgeous pictures, Max! You make me think... I have not honed my Henckels 401 yet; and I only shaved once with my new Genco De Roma which looks *very* promising, too!

    Btw. you should start a new club for Gencos (I am utterly unsuccessful with starting new clubs).

    +1 for that. I have my great Grandfathers old Genco, in near mint condition, and would love to see a Genco club. I haven't seen a negative review of them yet.

    Well, at this point my favorite and only razor is my Dovo micarta SS 5/8. I guess if you included the old rotation of Bic, Mach 3 and DE, it sure beats them all out!

    These are my latest tries at restorationsName: 100_0171.jpg Views: 192 Size: 56.6 KB

    Name: 100_0174.jpg Views: 217 Size: 51.8 KB, so for now they're getting their shave testing. I'm in the middle of my Wade & Butcher period and the two Wade & Butchers on the outside both shaved well. I'll be trying the Heljestrand Mk 32 in the middle today. This is my first try at posting pictures ,hope they show up

    I do believe it is the same blade. You won't be disappointed.
