Posting late, but here's my Mother's Day shave. Mom is out of town so I went to Atlantic City and lost money. Had a clean shave for it though.
The name of the blade is attributed to the fact that I speak no German.

Here is my Red Imp 132, who is now named Maharet. I named her after the character from Anne Rice's The Vampire Chronicles, in which Maharet is one of two red-headed twins who lived in the time the first vampires were created and was one of the oldest vampires to exist. If and when I find myself a nice 133, I will name her Mekare, after the other twin. I believe the characteristics of each blade are well matched to the characters they are (and will be) named after, but you'll have to read to understand why.

Please excuse the black ring in the sink, I was honing before I shaved. Set 4 bevels today...
