Thread: My first Thiers-Issard

I have recently rekindled my desire to straight razor shaving and I am hooked. I have been shaving with a Dovo that I am very happy with and it is a great shaver. I learned technique with it and I have learned a great deal about honing with it. I have been wanting a TI for a while now, and so today, it finally arrived. A brand new Theirs-Issard 5/8 half hollow Special Coiffeur. Right out of the box, I knew instantly that this was going to be my new favorite razor out of the two,,,,,,yes I also have another one on the way,,,,,,one I bought off of ebay,,,,,,,,,so possibly three razors I own. But when I first unwrapped it, and opened it up, I knew I was holding a fine instrument.
