This will be fun! I am a big fan of Sheffield razors, and razors made by USA companies. I believe the USA razor companies are very underrated.

1. "High Art" by Wilber Cutlery Co., Chicago, Ill.
2. "Wiss Sure Comfort" by J. Wiss & Sons Co., Newark, NJ
3. Harris-Goar MFG. Co. Kansas City, Mo.

Good Sunday morning all...
Scheonburg 775
Edwin Jagger BBB
Erasmic sc
Thayers Original WH w/ aloe
Musgo Real asb
Knize 10 cologne
Finally a complete straight razor shave. I finally watched Lynn's dvd and felt confident enough to go more than one pass. I used the hot towel treatment on a two days growth after my shower and took the Scheonburg out of the drawer where it had been since I received it from Seth...the second pass was smoother (obviously) and I was able to across the grain with no problem. A milestone has been reached.
