What a beautiful razor Max. Your cacti also seem to be enjoying that beautiful pre-summer day. Hope you had a great and relaxing day.

I'm driving home in the morning so I'll have some different razors to post this week

You've done a great job with this blade Grant. Brace yourself for the winter months. Hope yours will not turn out to be as nasty as the one "we" (the East coast folks) had here or Europe. Looking forward to your other razor posts. have a safe drive mate

I am also shocked Birnando, on two counts: (1) 5/8" is not your size and (2) I have also rarely seen (if any) customs ever made in 5/8". But I must say though, she's one heck of a great looking TZ.

There is a certain personal satisfaction in achieving a BBS shave with a 150+ year old razor...

David,
Now, that's one nice "All English Affair" (I think). Well done. It sure is satisfying.

Very nice "blue" themed photo David. Great blade too (I take it that's the checkered pattern is just a reflection off the mat). I love it....Congrats you razor addict, LOL.
