    F.S.silvertip/Occitane Cade/Brut Original/ Eaton n.100 13/16




    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.

    Yup, it is getting there. Btw, Vie Long Brush is a winner.

    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...

    Prep: hot shower (not to hot though, bloody teenagers)
    Brush: Custom by Penofstheforest, my deepest gratitude to a top bloke, Rod!
    Razor: C V Heljestrand M K no:15
    Soap: MdC
    AS: Blue Floid (like many warm days :-))
    Strops: Neil Miller
    Result: Very, very close

    This's the only Heljestrand MK razor with this design, I can recall seeing: It was very common with Klas Törnblom and not uncommon with E A Berg, but Heljestrand didn't seem to jump up on this design train very willing



    Congrats Obie!!

    Thank you, and Harts are really nice razors, particularly if you like a hefty blade.
