    Default C.W. Dahlgren dropped through the door

    Nice little C.W. Dahlgren came through the post this morning, my first frame back.

    Rescaled and honed by the seller, still yet to take it for a test run though. It is a little thinner at the tang than my others (about half the width, third pic shows this) and that straight monkey tail might make for a bit of an interesting shave.

    just need my whiskers to grow faster!

    Cris,
    I hope that the little frameback gets your heart and becomes a favorite.

    I have one just like that and I simply love it.
    Congratulations

    I can see it coming quite a regular in my rotation, just had a test shave, completely different to what I'm used to since there's a distinct lack of weight. But 'tis a beautiful shaver.

    Easily one of the best £12 I've spent in a long time

    Ah, that's a doozey!
    I have a secret little thing with framebacks.
    They seem to be the best of both worlds really, singing hollow and a wedgy razor at the same time.
    Love 'em.

    I had one like that I sold to a friend as he has wanted a dahlgren for awhile. The steel is GREAT on those.

    Yeah, totally get one if you don't mind thin tangs. They are even more inexpensive than bergs.

    Don't even think about it, just get one... Or two...

    Put my own edge on as I wasn't too happy with the sellers edge. Without a shadow of a doubt I'd say it's one of the best shavers I have. Think I need another one, give it a friend so it doesn't feel too different from the rest
