Nice one Lu! I love the English razors for how they look and feel in the hand.

Thanks Mikael,
I really have taken to the Sheffield razors, I have 3 that are in shaving shape now. I also have a few more in the garage waiting on a bit more time, hopefully I will be able to get them cleaned and honed in the next couple of weeks.
