    Wow. Well if we are talking that one special one it would have to be my great grandfathers razor. It come out for special shave and is a dream shaver. Perhaps its all in my head.`I do have many others in my razor inventory. My favorites change. I have a no name no frills razor simply marked sheffield that has been a favorite lately. Sometimes its one of my pumas that I hang out with more. Most often when I go away I take my Henckles Friodour twins because they shave great and I don;t worry to much about them on the boat. It's not very cut and dried with me. Every dog has it's day and my razors seem to as well.

    We'd all like a video of you shaving why asea in not calm waters. It would be a thrilla of a video watching you balance with pitch and roll while doing a three pass shave.

    The seas are not always rough and I'm not sure I'd want to make that video.

    That's a really hard question; they all have special meanings or attributes. Should it be my FIRST razor, or the smoothest or the sharpest or the most enjoyable?

    I went with my Jernbolaget, a tacky looking razor in a way, but very nice to use and 'different' looking...
