and just for the record, today is opposite day.Saved,
to shave another day.

I would just keep an eye on this razor at least weekly and also segregate it from the rest your soon to be large collection!

Thank you. It doesn't appear to have any yet and I am going to be careful with storage. Originally Posted by TwistedOak

It's off to be honed by Glen at Gemstar Customs. I look forward to shaving with it.

I got it back from a Glen and shaved with it today. It shaved beautifully. This is a sweet razor that I look forward to learning with.
