hot shower, the smell of rain in the garden, hit the 80s,fantastic razor....
tonight I have been cherished and cuddled ..... steel sheffield particularly soft and the size / weight of the razor (13/16 1/2 hollow) have made that the shave was sooooo delicate.. pleasure ...

Before there was Robert Wade, it was just Samuel and William Butcher or, the Butcher Brothers.
Took a great edge, terribly happy about the condition of scales and blade.

I visited some of the flood- damaged houses in Dresden, Saxony.
A lot of losses...around 1 million Euro -5 appartment houses. Was there with the client and the censor/ evaluator.
The insurance company will pay for all this losses...
