My New Les ††† Croix
My new razor. Its a Johann Breidor Les ††† Croix 6/8 Full Hollow. Scales are original as I bought it NOS. Couldn't be happier with the purchase and just had to share it with some folks. Ohh yes, by the way, I'm new here and figured might as well introduce myself and the misses
. Enjoy.

Milton, welcome to SRP.
The Johann Breidor Les ††† Croix 6/8 Full Hollow is a very impressive razor. Please report back on how the misses shaves.

Did you buy it from a vendor that hones the razors? Make some friends and get someone here to hone it for you! Most guys would hone that for free just to get the chance to test shave it!

Nice pull on your first blade!!! One of my many fave's. Shave's like a dream and holds a great edge.

Yes, the vendor hand honed the blade prior to sending it my way and man is it sharp. Its my second razor, the first was labeled "shave ready" but giving the Les Croix a go, I soon realized I might as well be trying to shave with my pocket knife. Today with the Les Croix, I tried to learn the ways of going ATG and I'd came out the other end with a bunch of nicks. Any tips and tricks on how to shave ATG smoothly?
Thanks for the compliments as well, she's a lovely lovely razor.Str8Shooter and jc50 like this.
