Please do not misunderstand: I like the scent very much!
"First Class Mainstream" needs a smiley.

My air mattress got a hole in it last night. I woke up with my head and feet askew. I am in a better mood now.

I'm very happy to have obtained this razor (been wanting a H. Diamond for a long time) and it didn't disappoint. I think it was the fastest bevel setting I've ever done (and it took an excellent bevel too). Cheers Seth! Now it would be nice if I could be well too, this cold of mine seems to be determent to take the best of me (day 5 with high fever ).

Great looking razor Mikael, my Towa is one of the best shavers I have.

I just received this razor from Glen while at the razor meet in Yakima. Had the pleasure of watching him hone it for me. I had seen what Glen can do with razors and I was happy to get him to restore this for me, what he can do with horn is amazing, I'm glad he talked me into using it!! I found this razor on the bay and fell in love with the geometry of the blade, it looked like a answer to getting some of my problem areas. It didn't disappoint!! I now have a hands down favorite razor! I had a great time in Yakima, met some great people and enjoyed some great hospitality! BTW, I was having trouble deciding between horn and bone scales, Glen used a bone wedge, so I got both!!
