That's a cool razor

Looks like the butterfly knives I played around with in the 90's

This is KAL's latest cartoon featured in the Economist this week. I thought you'd enjoy it. I certainly get a kick of his humor

These are bad boys

I sure wish he was still making razors.
I'd be all over one of his fine works of art!

You mean, you don't already have 3, LOOOOL?

Rune,
Well done with the edge on this one. I can honestly say that this Toyo is amongst the top 10 shavers of all time...in my book at least.

Better hurry Amund...These don't come around all that often. I had to wait ~7 mos before finding one NOS

What a marvelous razor Chris. Is that tang blued or is does she just look that way in the photo?

Tell me about it Rum...We've been glued to the internet, reading all that's been going on. Pretty nasty. The globe seems to be in a very fragile emotional state of mind. My wife's sister and family are there as we speak for a few days on their way to Armenia for the kid's games. Hope you're safe brother. At least you got a great shave in and you didn't let the negative news effect that.

A two day growth and a late afternoon shave today so I picked out The Scheon Burg razor which is German steel made in Japan, a devilishly sharp blade.

Another Toyo today? Wowww. you guys are on a roll. Beautiful choice Nathan. The 775 is another one of my favs. Sorry about the Coates running low...Hope you find another soon

Hey B.,
Nice razor. How do you like the Lemon WH?

Welcome back Tim...a well deserved getaway I am sure. Man, shaving without a brush is just as bad as doing it with a Fusion...But, glad you improvised and it worked out great at the end.

LOOOOL...Just seeing if anyone was paying attention. And you were the ONLY one that caught that. I actually used the M&F, but for some reason I was thinking about the Simpson as I was writing the post.

Result: A very nice shave with the “Napoleon” this morning. The slant grind to this blade makes it a joy to shave with as it seems to scythe naturally. 2 passes and very smooth. I didn't have time to post it this morning, so here it is. I took the long way home from work today and drove the windy country roads. It was a beautiful drive in which I took stock of all that I am so blessed to have. Amongst the many many blessings is the SOTD and it is so special because of each of you, so “Thanks” to each of you

What a wonderful shave that must have been Glenn. Love that Napoleon. In a world where time is of the essence, it's always nice to stop and smell the roses.

It always happens when you're not looking, LOOOL. Great shave with that Wacker

A picture is worth a thousand words:

Happy shaving!!

I talk a good game. When the storms leave, the house gets too quiet. I like them around as everyone knows.
