BTW, how do they shave?

I have 11 razors in total and only use 2 and have never used these ones......yet.

Hi Rob

Yea, the the 1918 appears to be etched the same way but it is done in a more sloppy manner than the rest. I still think that was an add on at a later date because of that.

My M&D razor shaves as well as any other SR that has been given a good honing. No magic to them that way just good shavers if the rest are like this one.

Put an edge on one and have a go with it. Nothing like shaving with a piece that has a Canadian connection if you are a Canuck, EH.

Bob

Thanks for the info Bob,

Yep Canuck here, Sunny South of you, I see yer up in Tunder Bay,

Ah no, for posting the the 3 blades. I never noticed this listing till it was finished myself.

That was a very nice score Bob. Is that the one I saw in the SOTD a few weeks ago? I would love to have one some day..........

Thanks and yes it was. Just getting it tuned up for my Nov 11th Remembrance Day shave. I thought using it would be pretty fitting under the circumstances.
