    Very nice; he does do some darn fine work.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    Congrats on your new blade. I have a couple of Cedrics razors and they're great shavers and well made.
    It's most likely either giraffe or camel bone (looks like giraffe). He gave me the site where he orders from when I got mine and those are what they carry.
