Richard- I welcome the timely addition of your well used razor as I have self-proclaimed this to be "Ugly Razor/Great Shave" week and have vowed (for one week only ) to shave with only my ugliest and best shavers. So This morning I selected one of my favorite razors. It's a 4/8 Koken Gazelle. Blade length is like 2". Completely undesireable. And ugly. I paid three bucks for it because I figured I'd hone it up and PIF it to some new straight shaver. It refused all efforts to become clean and presentable. When I shave tested it, I said to myself "this thing is going NOWHERE but into my rotation! I usually dislike smaller razors, but this thing is SO nimble on your face, and it takes an edge like a Fili 14. It's never bit me or misbehaved in any way.

Presented next to a container of Ren Wax, because this ugly prom date has never seen a molecule of it before. With MdC unscented, an Omega 10049, and Thayers Aftershave with witch hazel and aloe. As good a shave as I ever have!
