In the mail this morning, the Greaves 7/8 arrived.
It's an interesting razor to be sure, it's looks like a faux frameback, and I've also heard it referred to as a rattler grind. Big chunk of steel, with a beautiful hollow grind on the blade, very nice shave, even though it was mostly skin I was taking off since I shaved yesterday.
But it was one WTG pass of bliss....

I took the razor back to the hones for freshening up after what seemed like a very long time since I last honed the razor, it was lightly passed over the 8K then 12K and as usual the razor was ready for stropping after 50 linen 50 suede the finally 50 cordovan the razor was effortlessly topping hairs as it moved slightly above my arm. PS I had forgotten how sharp this razor could be fantastic shave so smooth and so close.
