    Talking New Bismarck..!

    I'd been sitting at work and staring at this razor for a good few weeks now and I finally cracked on Monday and ordered it from The Invisible Edge (thanks Steve!)

    It arrived this morning! Unfortunately I had already shaved so now I cant wait for tomorrow morning to give it a road test!

    Now I just have to decide what to get next...! I have the choice down to three; A Boker Edelweisse, a TI Spartacus Historic (7/8" square point with a mirror finish and snakewood handles) or a Wacker Antik Spanish point 15/16. Suggestions anyone?

    Oh yes, and here are some pics of the new toy..! Love it!

    Nice looking razor you have there. I'd spend the rest of the day concentrating hard on growing whiskers if I were you.

    I have always been a Bismark admirer. Nice heavy blade and a great shoulderless grind with neat scales.

    That is one of the nicest looking production razors out there in my opinion.

    congrats!

    I just got one a couple days ago, except in red. It not only looks beautiful but it shaves awesome as well. It seems like a pretty reasonably priced shaver for the level of quality.

    Default New Bismarck

    I just got the Bismarck with the bone scales and really love it. What a showstopper the Bismarck is. I believe they are full hollow ground. Nice hefty feel and good overall control makes for a nice shave. They are supposed to be a 6/8ths razor but actually measure alot wider.
