My dear Jimk,
I also have the Spartacus Thiers-Issard in creamy white bone scales with the dreadnought point you mention. In my estimation it is a magnificent razor in every way, from its beauty to workmanship and shave quality. Thus far, for me, it is the perfect straight razor in my modest razor collection.
I bought my Spartacus from Steve at the Invisible Edge. Steve is a gentleman to deal with and offers quality products with excellent service. He gets my highest recommendation.
I had intended to buy the "Le Canadien" version of it, too, with wood scales, from Rasage Poulin in Canada, but some work assignments fell through and the money ran out. I like this razor that much. I also have a high recommendation for Rasage Poulin. Owner Scott is another gentleman who offers quality and service.
Should you buy this razor in either version? Of course. If I had the money, I would love to have a seven-day set. Ah, well . . .
Regards,
Obie
