    Default Garden Variety Kropp 7/8

    I gotta be honest, things happened fast after not shaving for 40 years.

    I met some really nice folks here.
    I decided this many people couldn't be delusional.
    I discovered good soaps and creams and learned how to use them.
    I bought a vintage sheffield straight and had it honed.
    I followed advice and, in a few weeks, enjoyed remarkably good shaves.
    I got a slight case of RAD and bought a range of modest, serviceable razors.
    I decided my last frontier was a nice, easy to sharpen 7/8 Sheffield.
    Presto! It's a hoss for less than the cost of a used saddle.

    BobH, RezDog and Phrank like this.

    Thats a beautiful razor.
    Kropp's are great, just like most sheffield blades.
    I love my Bengall's and Invicta's the most probably, however I do have a Kropp of similar size and condition (blade at least), waiting in my razor drawer for a clean up though.
    May you have many relaxing shaves with that one :-)

    Thanks, N'en. If you ever get around to comparing that Kropp to the Bengall and Invicta I hope you'll recall to ping me. I'd like to hear your side-by-side estimate.
