Was the flask full? lol

Nice blade. I have been drooling over the Hart's. A very nice contemporary look. Have you shaved with er yet?

Not yet. I plan on taking it for a spin tomorrow. They are said to be shave ready right out of the box but I'm wondering if that's a true statement. So, I may take a run at it tomorrow but I can't be sure that I'll finish the shave with it. Being a quarter hollow, I'm not sure how it should behave outside of shaving. The other full hollow razors I have will easily cut hair above the surface. This one doesn't. It may need to be finished off a bit, not sure. Also, my understanding is that they use tape when honing them. But I don't know if they used one or two layers. We'll see tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it.

Outstanding

Those are fantastic razors. My current (non-sentimental) favorite razor is very similar to yours...but I am making some new scales for mine as the supplied scales seem rather mundane for such a fantastic blade.

I trust you will enjoy that to the fullest...and props on a significant other that really seems to "get" you

Thank you. But I don't really think she gets me. I just think she humors me. LOL. Anyway, we're traveling together these days.

Stunning! Is that Cocobolo? I think a Hart is next on my list.

Yes they are cocobolo, a handsome complement. I may pick up a set of the faux ivory as well. I'm a sucker for ivory.

Lucky guy, i hope my wife got me the same one for christmas, it was on classicedge but now it shows as sold out, unless your wife got it from there.

Mmmike

Nice razor, use it in good health!
