I had no intention of shaving today since I slammed my left hand, and I am left handed, in a Little Giant Ladder yesterday. Nothing broke, ice, ice, ice and this morning it was a bit swollen but nothing appeared broke.
I came home this afternoon and in the mail was this little beauty I picked up from Grant. Well, that changed everything so I ran upstairs and showered and shaved. What a great razor. The pictures don't do it justice (mine or Grants). Grant did great job on this razor and I am thrilled to have it.

Thanks Grant, I hope you like the back drop. It too means a lot to me, I have it 37 years and it was a gift from my Great Grand Father.

Rene, I think you've started something...

Wow, its strange to see a razor I'm so familiar with pop up in someone else's post. Hope you like it mate.
I love the back drop, its great to see items of great sentimental value here in SOTD.

I have a problem with that. My wife knew my Great Grand Father and my Grandfather.
