Glenn: Happy 10th Anniversary buddy . I look forward to your Silver and Golden (and hopefully Platinum) ones.

Egil: Welcome to SOTD . Great having you around.

Glenn, happy 10th anniversary! I'm only 2 years behind :-)

Today is starting off to be GREAT! First i recieved some razors in the mail. 2 Great razors. One W&B 8/8 celebrated hollow ground and the second is "The Holy Grail" LOL! This one i thought i would NEVER EVER EVER own. Partly because they usually go for 400-500 dollars. Dubl Duck Lifetime. She is in awesome shape. Just need to hone her up.
The second is im moving my EX's box's to her mom's house and getting rid of her big stuff!. Now i just need to win the lottery! Woo Hoo!!!!!!

Egil,

Welcome to the SRP SOTD forum, my man. That's a really nice-looking razor you have there.

-Brush (Gabon ebony 24x50 silvertip from my own production)
-Trumper's Eucris soap
-Iwasaki Kamisori
-Paco Rabanne AS

Finally mine, I have been after one of these since IIRC Frank did a SOTD pic with an all purple theme and set off my RAD...
Knowing that LZ6/Bob had one helped as he agreed to sell me his, after enough begging
So the Hayashi came up to North Idaho, Since I had honed this last, I just touched it up, with some Pigtails on my Coticule diluting to clear water.. Then finishing on my Nakayama Midori basically the same rountine I use on a Kamisori style razors, only using western Style honing strokes..
The edge is an incredible shaver, that you would be hard pressed to beat...






Congrats Glenn on the 10 Years,,, Ours is in September, 10 years married, and 20 years together
