Thanks, Grant, it is a Maxterpiece! He did a wonderful job, particularly given that this Friodur suffers from their typical bent tang. He managed to put it together in such a way that it centers nice and straight. It's such a joy to use this big blade now. Originally Posted by baldy

Having a "Back to Basics" Shave.
This was my first Straight Razor. Haven't
shaved with it since RAD took over, this
razor gives an extremely smooth, close
shave, better than I remember ! But then
again, I've learned alot since then. Over all
a fantastic shave with some not so
fantastic memories, but its all good now !

Hope everything is okay, Jeff... Better to see the shave late, than to never get the privilege! Originally Posted by Mvcrash

Pre-Shave: Hot shower
Brush: 28mm Shavemac 410
Razor: 9/16" WM Elliot No. 73, muted square point
Strop: DOVO Cowshide
Superlather: Tabac
Astrigent: Alum
Aftershave balm: Nivea Sensitive
Results: Awesomely smooth B-Day shave.
First off: Robert, my condolences. Good luck in the time up ahead.
After the troubles with my neck I had a great shave last Friday-morning. But I wasn't able to post it because of time constraints(work). It was a nice shave with only 1 pass on the neck, it wasn't (too)smooth, but the shave was really comfortable.
Now after not shaving the entire weekend I had a wonderful shave this evening. I got out the WM Elliot, my first ever razor, for a spin. Paying attention to the pressure, especially on my neck, I got a very clean 3 pass shave, zero sting from the alum. Perfect for my 24th birthday tomorrow.
Have a
and a great Tuesday gentlemen.
