Which stamp tells you it's an Isasaki?

First three Kanji stamps heading North on the blade are Iwasaki's mark...can't make out the one's following....looking forward to doing some more reading and honing it - looks like it may not need a bevel reset...hoping!!

I've been avoiding both the bay and the B/S/T threads lately to keep the AD's in hand. That was until this week when sitting and killing time I got on ebay, found a razor and set a snipe. As it turns out no one else bid on the 11/16 Henry Sears & Son 905. I actually had half forgotten that I set a snipe up for this one so I was a bit surprised when ebay informed me that I had won the auction.

I've enjoyed the Buhl Sons shoulderless that I picked up a few months ago at a very good price and it's had me wanting to try a few more "hardware" razors. When I sumbled across the Henry Sears, another shoulderless no-less, I couldn't help placing a bid. Unfortunately I didn't save any of the pictures from the listing so I'll have to wait to post some of my own once it shows up.

Arriving on Monday

This one? If so, it looks like you have a very nice razor inbound.

That's the one! I've bought a couple of razors from this seller with no real complaints and this one looked pretty nice. I'm looking forward to putting it through its paces sometime next week.

I look forward to hearing how it shaves. I'm s big fan of shoulderless razors.

Dang I can't wait for tomorrow morning................

Looks, great and try to sleep...

This one came in the mail today:



This is my first new production razor. All of my others are vintage with the exception of my one custom from Max Sprecher. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's shave.

I'm going to give this stuff another try[emoji12]

It's funny, there are so many soaps out there I rarely buy the same one twice, and with a robust selection to choose from, they all last for a really long time.
