Thanks! It's the original finish; not bad for an E-Bay find!

Okay I used a brand new (to me) puma from holi4pirating. I ran it over some CrOx then CeOx just to make it mine, it did not need it but I cannot shave with a razor without putting something into it. It was what I consider NOS though it does have some water stains and light pitting along with a little bit of red rust on the back, hopefully I will address this in the future. Any way this was my set up:

strop: illonois linen, SRP webbed fabric, illonios russian leather, SRP Premium IV

Pre-shave: hot towel with several reapplications,... 'The Bomb' Calypso pre shave oil

Shave: 'The bomb" Calypso shaving cream, Thater brush, random antique store mug(10 cents), High Class Puma with faux (sounds better than fake) tourtise shell scales.

Post shave: sample 'The bomb' calypso ASB, followed by Ogallgha bay rum after shave.

I do not know if it was the razr or what but i seriously think this may have been the closest shave I have ever had. big thanks to Dylan and Puma for making it possible along with Al's "the Bomb."

Please forgive the picture quality they were taking with an iphone and a flashlight . eventually I will get a camera up and running.
