I have no fear using this old razor as my Tetanus is up to date.

That's too funny David...She may be old, but I bet she's one heck of a whisker wacker

She's definitely a beauty Sten. I also found that as I moved forward in my str8 shaving journey, I tended to like prefer the hollowest razors. But, I do have a few wedges that will compete with the best of them extra hollows too. It's all fun. Enjoy the process of discovery my friend. I can honestly say that it is certainly the best part of wetshaving

Ouuuch Paul...Sorry about the cut buddy. These Dorkos are known for their keen edges. Heal fast brother. technique will be there when you do (a day or so at most hopefully)

That's on the surface. He's got Vegas covered in bets, LOOOOL. Everyone there knows about you by now, LOOOL...You can't even book a flight to go see Max.

Rene, good luck on stopping the RAD. It got me thinking, maybe we should set up a large scale razor swap in the SOTD. It would be pretty cool to see our own razors in someone else's SOTD.

Interesting idea Glenn...Isn't that kind of like becoming a razor pimp? There's only one guy I know who's holds that title and I ain't telling who it is, LOOOOOOL. besides, you just want to get your hands on my Puma, LOOOL. Don't you??
