This blade is huge and sharp (thanks John!) and I love it . Had some difficulties with my problem areas, I´ve to get used to this big blade I think. But it turned out to be a very very nice shave. One nick though, when I relaxed some

Mikael,

That's a nice looking Henckels Friodur. I love those scales. Wowzer!!!

Hey Sharp, let me add my welcome to the SOTD thread as well! We enjoy seeing the great shave kits that everyone is using each day and talking shaves and gear. BTW, I used to live in O'Fallon, Missouri (Wentzville and Darden as well) back in the 70's. My Son and two daughters are still living in Missouri and I went back there to see them last year. That place has really grown! Hope to see more of your fine gear. (How could you NOT LIKE a Livi!)

Wow guys! Thank you so much for such a warm welcome. I've always enjoyed looking at the SOTD threads, now I can say it feels even better to post on it. I look forward to seeing everyone's gear each day. Again, thanks to all of you for your warm welcome and for sharing the pics, experiences, etc that goes into each days shave. Cheers!
