Excellent progression on a beautiful Duke Jamie. Well done

I got this razor last week for a discounted price at a Henckels shop in Germany.

Congrats on a beautiful acquisition Donald. What a nice score (much less at a discounted price). Great to have you on SOTD

What a fabulous buy Rune. Congrats my friend. Joe is one of the nicest guys you will find on any continent. Couldn't have done better even if I tried.

Beautiful blade Paul...When Filis get sharp, they mean business. Sorry for the nick bro.

Notes: Late shave for me today, yesterday's overindulgence in hunt for BBS left it's mark in the growth department.

Way to go with this blade and da fat Sten...What a nice treat, despite only 1 pass. I hope it was a loooong pass, LOOOL

Today's shave was silky smooth. Dave (Cannonfodder) put an edge on this razor that continues to be really smooth.

What a beauty Jeff. I love Henckels...they never fail to impress

I know what you mean Jeff...but every man needs his quiet time too. Too much storm can throw us off balance, LOOOOL.a
