Thanks Jeremy! I didn´t know that, I picked an old belt that wasn´t to hard in the skin, if you understand what I mean. That´s a good tip though, but do you think it´s a good idea to use such a hard surface? Lol

Don't sweat it...I am sure you measured it right. I just wanted to confirm (to myself) that the smaller is a spike and the bigger Spanish. That's all

Thanks Mikael...you confirm what Mark measured too.

Regardless of size and shape, I think they are great shavers

Thanks guys
