    _______________________________________________

    Did you ever say "finally"? Finally I broke 70 on the golf course. Finally I rolled a 300 game. Well, Finally at age 70, I got myself a Palmera razor. Finally!! It is 7/8" to the top of the spine with a fairly heavy grind. Just finished honing it and had myself a luxurious shave. I've always been partial to Revisor and TI blades but this Palmera is the best. Took a magnificent edge and gave the best shave yet. Not for sale - EVER..........
