    Default Bowdins Wedge by Maximilian

    This is my latest acquisition (first of 2 from Max) and I can't wait until it arrives.

    This is a Hand Made 9/16 Wedge out of Minneapolis, MN. The pictures aren't mine as I couldn't do this razor justice in a lifetime of trying. So all credit goes to Max.

    Here is the link to the listing if you want to see more.

    How's these Bowdins' shave? I've got a chance at getting one, don't know if it'll be worth the effort of rescaling. Don't hear much about them, at least I hadn't.

    Max's stuff always looks amazing. Far better than it would have been new, infact! Hope it's with you soon!

    +1 on Max, I can vouch for him too.
    He always seems to have the nicest pictures too.

    I got to shave with it last night for the first time and this little thing is a great shaver. It is a smaller wedge at just over 4/8 and feels light in the hand but has great maneuverability and mows down the growth. It felt like a little sports car.

    I also used my new Simpsons Chubby 1 Best for the first time with Institute Karite soap for this shave. This was one of my best shaves yet
