    That one nearest the edge is in fact a Greaves. It's an old re-grind but it's still a big old thang AND shave ready. Unlike your Packwood.

    Pretty wicked looking paint stirrer that is.

    NOW if I had it, it'd shave and never again be relegated to paint stirrer status.

    Are you like me, you get 3-4 razors in the hone progression at one time?
    One time, in band camp, I shaved with a Gold Dollar razor.

    Honing relaxes me...a drink afterwards is just pure bliss. Dang it, I forgot to run by the liquor store...finished off my Crown last night. I keep mine & a tumbler in the freezer, that way I don't spoil it with ice. Try it sometime!

    I was referring to Sharptonns 9/8 Greaves when I said "you're not getting off that easily" He posted this super duper one not to long ago. Or maybe I'm just seeing it for the first time. I'll take yours too Wullie. Matter of fact we should trade my new Savage Masonic for some of your old stock...LOL. You've got too many any way

    I do that with my vodka. I like my scotch, tequila, and bourbon on the rocks. Tried it both ways and for me, the ice cubes are the fun part after the drink is gone.
