    Very nice Jamie. Now you might as well send all your other razors to me as you would need them.
    It's just Sharpening, right?

    Congratulations and enjoy that beauty. I do not have that kind of patience so do not have any holy grail razors.

    Beautiful razor Jamie, and that feeling of nailing a Holy Grail, did the angels sing as you opened the package?

    Jamie, I trust you have the matching King Pelican strop?

    Holy smokes Jamie. I remember Pixelfixed talking about these back in the day, if my memory is correct. You'll hone it and take for a test drive?

    Wow, that's a total unicorn, Jamie-So yeah, you gonna hone it? I bought a NOS razor not long ago. I couldn't bring myself to hone it, and it was just pissing me off sitting useless in my cabinet, so I sold it lol!

    I was told the razor still has the factory edge, I know the razor very well as I have honed them in the past, I also have Japanese razors with a very similar grind, a quarter hollow 7/8 the nearest I have to that razor would be my Hoshi Tombo first edition quarter hollow 13/16 that is such a smooth shaver.

    Great looking razor, are you gonna use her or keep her pristine?
