Ouuuch Bruce. I can feel that one. Hope it heals quickly. But, that's one beautiful blade (Love the Violet wood)
Monroe,
We had missed you buddy. Hope all is well. Welcome back.
Beautiful blade, and a wonderful combination of lather
Great shot maestro
Ola José. Love this shot. Very telling
Ahhhh Jeff,
I would give anything for a "lazy" day like that. Looks like you enjoyed it. Have fun at dinner. Don't give up on Cella.
Fabulous blade Rum.
Frank,
That's one heck of combination. Well done.
First off: congratulations on your son's wonderful win. You have spoken like a proud parent.
Second: wonderful shave to honor their win
Third: Madame Butterfly is a beautiful Opera (as is Barber of Seville). Great choices.
Jim,
Sounds like a fitting (yet wonderful) shave for a rainy day.
Glenn,
I was going to say something nice about your SOTD/shave, but forget all that. Lily Kate is a 1000 times better. She sounds soooo cute. I bet she made your day more than the Livi. Well done.

Thank you Robert! It´s a 6/8 and more like half hollowish, but it´s a very stiff grind and closer to a wedge in the feel. The B K:s are rare, I only heard of three and according to some factory sheets I got (but they only stretch for like 8 years, I think Heljestrand used to change things rather often) it´s a different grind to the M K:s.
Stunnig SOTD:s everyone! Thanks for sharing!!
