    Seriously, my 7/8 Puma high class with tortoise. Great balance, beautiful to look at and hold, and gives a fantastic shave. Very smooth. I'm not sure how some steels shave better than others when honed identically, but they do. Maybe it's in my head. I know a pretty razor shaves better, no matter what kind of steel. And my cars run better after I detail them. My imagination? Who knows...........................Jeff

    I only have a handful of razors, but my favorite is my Geo. W. Korn, followed up closely by by my Comfort. I want to get better at restoration before I buy a fancy razor like a puma or dubl duck. Someday, I'll get a brand new razor (probably a TI) just to see what that's like

    I don't have one particular favorite, but I do have some I'm rather fond of. Two best buys are the Geo. Wostenholm 6/8 ($10 Ebay) and my Puma 7/8 ($40 new @ gunshow). They're always at the top of my blade rotation 'cause they're both so easy on the face. Just my $.02

    Wow thats a hard question because I have several favorites. I really like my DDs both the satin, gold and wonderedges. My Puma high class is also great as is my TI Pierre Theirs special edition.

    Default I only have two...

    a Dovo "Special" 5/8 and a TI "Evide Sonnant Extra" 5/8. If I had to choose a favorite between the two, I would have to give the nod to my TI. I just seem to get a better shave with it. It also seems to keep a better edge.

    I've got two more coming, though. I've got a Hen & Rooster 5/8 coming from Tony and a SRP L/E TI 6/8 coming from Ray via Lynn.

    I can't wait to add them to my arsenal!!

    My favorite, probably because it has the best edge of any that I own, is a Black Diamond.
