I long for the days when my wife was satisfied with Coach. Keep them away from Hermes and LV!!!!

Bones, that's beautiful!

Given the blades you have to compare it to, your assessment counts on that Hart blade. It's really handsome - I'm a sucker for the clean look. I just finished a shave that was the best of my life, and I'm still too excitable to talk coherently about it. 'Got the Williams from Riooso w/ an asagi edge. 'Really really different, in a very good way.

My ex had to have a LV. $800. Must be nuts.

I love my Hart! Not sure it gives me the best shave I've had, but the great performance combined with the clean, workmanlike look of this razor, I love it.

Now, please post a pic of that Williams!

I agree. My problem is my daughters take after their Mom. Which in many ways is a great thing. But the three of them walk into Coach.....I want to faint. (They are good kids so it is money well spent)

I have a bunch of those also and a few others I cannot name. Oh well, she likes that stuff, I like fast cars, old cars and razors......

Location: Taipei, Taiwan
Time: 1123
Soap: Castle & Forbes Lime
Brush: Restored Fuller 22mm TGN Silver Knot
Razor: The Djorr 99 Bohler Extra
Afterwards: Sandalwood Skinfood

Notes: I don't have a Filly 13 but I have a Djorr 99. Very smooth shave from a nicely sized razor (I am really enjoying small-medium sized razors at the moment) - just seems to be a more second nature shave to me (though I will always love bigger blades they require that much more attention). Extremely pleased with this razor, I've been waiting a while for it, thanks to Dylan for the sale and the edge he put on it. The scales are interesting, looks like someone has melted another set to the top but no worries everything is snug and tight and I love the character. My apologies for few posts, I've been slacking on the shaving as well as the posting. You really get to tell whether a razor is shave ready when it has to go through days worth of stubble, some of my razors just crumble against that much growth. The Djorr however went smoothly through whiskers with no problems whatsoever. I had to post two photos cuz I felt the first one didn;t focus on the razor, the second below is a crop of the first. I know I've been absent but I have enjoyed the photos as I always do so Thanks for all the posts in this thread.
