I got it on eBay quite some time ago. I had another that I sold, but this one might be more rare because the days on the blades (it only has 3 of them) are in Swedish, and most of the others that I have seen are English. It is a really nice shaver, getting the blades honed up is a bit of work but worth it

Prep: Hot Shower
Razor: Sprecher 8/8 Spanish Point
Cream: Musgo Real
Brush: Tweezerman
WH: Dickinson's
ASB: Arko Aqua

Shave: Exceptionally satisfying after 3 attempts to hone this razor properly. Still not sure what my malfunction was, but I had to walk away twice before finally getting it right on... Definitely worth the wait to get it right!

a great day topped off by a great shave !!

rolled outta the house about noon and off to the river to enjoy a nice mild 64 degree temp with a slight breeze !!
Gooser 3 - Steelhead 1 was the final count , broke one off cause i was to lazy to replace a knot i had in the tippet and of course thats where it broke .. one skirted away as i was digging my phone out but i think i have the other 2 on film ...lol





from there it was kids baseball scrimage and then RED-IMP REDEMPTION night
pre=shower
soap= Mikes Barber Shop ( really starting to be one of my top choices of soap/scent)
brush= Wee-Scott
razor= Red-Imp
results= right where i wanted to be after a great feeling 1 pass WTG shave !! re-honed this razor before the shower after it gave me a ruff time last night and i got a new coticule in the mail so i figured what a great time to do it !!! Success !!

That's a beautiful picture!

Tuesday morning:



Portus Cale Citrus, Cedar & Amber
Simpson Persian Jar
Bismarck 6/8
Myrsol Agua Balsamica

Have a nice day!

Today once again the H-Diamond

Tuesday

Razor | Klas Törnblom | Cream | Body Shop Macca Root| After Shave | Tabac

Well, news today is the CEO of the Government Dept I work for told the Minister I was the ‘best education coordinator in the state’. What about THAT, hmmm?

In regards to the shave, it was very nice with the Klas Törnblom, great edge on this; normally it’s reserved for the irregular Sunday shaves, but a post on the Swedish Steel thread prompted me to use this razor. Actually, come to think of it, three of the seven razors currently in my rotation are Swedish, and I used to have another. I quite like the lightness of the Framebacks.

I actually got a little nick this morning, and I don't know why!

I suppose very careful: The blade is sharp.
