Nice Tom! You seems to like this blade, since you use it a lot lately and it looks very nice!!

Yes, Mikael
I like this razor.
I got the blade shave-ready and it works very well.

Location: Coffs Harbour Australia
Strop: Illinois 835
Brush: FS Finest Badger
Soap: Proraso
Razor: Custom Kropp 11/16
A/S: David Craig Bay Rum
As I mentioned last night, the past couple of evenings have been busy and I never got around to shaving. Fortunately the Kropp made short work of the 3 day growth, and I love the menthol feel of Proraso on a hot evening.
I had company for this shave, Jack was watching me, poking his finger in my lather and trying on after shaves. I had to finish after 2 passes because he was getting a little too enthusiastic with his exploration. Still very smooth and satisfied after the 2 passes.

Thanks for all the great posts and pics boys

We are thousends of miles away...please hug Jacky-boy and tell him greetings from Germany.

Yep... we have really hard butter over here

For me, a straight has to be so sharp that the hairs just fall out of their follicles when they see the razor approaching!!

Wow, so nice to see someone using the wooden bowl version of MdC. I have the large glass-bowl version and after 4 months it has barely gone down 1mm. How long have you had/used yours to get it so far down below the line?

Awesome pic anyway!
