    Being I just finished honing it up, and ready to take it for a test ride.[emoji6]

    The little antique shop that I peruse keeps telling me that they have had a couple razors but they went right out. I don't bother telling them that I'm the one that bought both of them. In fact they had been in the case for months. This place is across the parking lot from my barber so when I get my ears lowered, I hit the old stuff shop.
    I think I need to find a new antique shop.

    Hurry up and get out of the bathroom so you can tell us how it shaved.

    A grand shave it was. Very crisp sounding, but a very smooth shaver. No cuts , and no sting, when I applied the alum block. [emoji8]
