So nice :-) requesting shave report!
Boy that one is stunning! Enjoy, and report on its use please.
I thought I had posted yesterday on this but Neil's passing might have made me screw up & not hit "post quick reply".
I also just noticed, I forgot to give it a like so I just did.
As usual, that is very nice Jamie. You never cease to amaze me!
That's an awesome blade. I took engine46's advice an looked at quite a few of your other blades after seeing that beautiful king pelican. An all I want to know is can I borrow your time machine so that I can buy a bunch of brand new blades too?!

Real nice.
NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jesus Christ, that thing is gorgeous and absolutely pristine! I love all of the colorful paint on it.
Personally, I don't normally love stainless steel razors; I've had some Henckels Friodurs I loved but also some Tennis, Dovo, Breidohr, etc. that just never took a good edge for me. For my money, the most beautiful straight razor I have ever seen is another Wusthof, the 716 Tridente Eleganza.

I just love the gold etching on the blade, the French ivory scales and covered tang, the bright red and silver inlay. It is also my preferred blade style at 13/16 width, round point, full hollow grind. I got mine NOS with box, didn't even touch it up, just stropped it, and it shaved like a dream, as good as any of my razors.
