Thanked: 3Alex Jacques
Need I words to describe? Except, to express how grateful I feel to be able to gaze upon it daily?
A genius clambers out of his moldering Tomb to ponder genius, shaking the dust of death to bask in its shimmering Borealis reflections?
Haha, first pictures I've ever posted anywhere. I don't know why one is twice the size of the other, and when I loaded the second, the first became a little out of focus?
The only thing I ever disagreed with Herman Melville about was his gushing lauding of beards. NOTICE how he sports such a square ghostly graying monster! I love him more than anyone, but I'd whisper like a shadow in the night to shiver that thing right off his face with an A. Jacques razor and he'd never even wake up.Last edited by RazeWiska; 06-11-2011 at 02:59 AM.

Thanked: 3Derek, you live in Chi-town! I live in Kenosha, which.. isn't so great. I grew up a country kid in PA (I mean country- not one red light in my whole town) so am a bumbkin in cities, mostly, but I've been to Chicago 4-5 times and I LOVE Chicago. It is a cool place. But can be a little intimidating for me.

Thanked: 3795That's really sad.
We had a meet-up in Kenosha a couple of months ago. If another one happens, you should come to it and bring your new toy with you. If your razor ever needs a touch up, I'll gladly volunteer to do it for you just a for a chance to play with it, or I don't know, maybe shave with it.

I can understand the intimidation. I grew up and currently live in the suburbs of the City, but have been to/from the city enough to know my way around. Love going downtown and walking around Millenium/Grant Park, Navy Pier, North Ave Beach. Great stuff.
Let me know next time you're in the area and we'll meetup and swap stories!
My aunt lives in Kenosha, too, btw. Easy drive straight up 294.

Aiai, that is a beauty!
Congratulations!
And as a fellow owner of one of his fine razors, I can attest to their shaving qualities as well.
Perfect!
Enjoy!Bjoernar
Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

How about a pic of the razor?, Really, Kudo's to your theme and set up, and photographic skill, but I'd really like to see a nice one of just the razor...
We have assumed control !
