    Default Wald Platypus

    Took a chance on this one, picked it up local, looked more like gunk than rust and the box was in good order, blade appeared to have little hone wear in photo, and it hasn't. Cleaned and honed today, came up good and gave a nice shave. Now i just need to learn to take a half descent photo, ha ha.

    Had a Platypus wedge at one time. Still regret selling it.

    If for nothing else you'd have to grab it for the name alone but the bonus is it is a fine looker too. Came out nice.

    Selling? what is the meaning of this selling word? Is that when you get to the point when you can't close the drawer on your stash of razors and your better half discovers them? I may be approaching the selling point very soon.

    Looks better in real life, etching intact, i will try the box idea. I dropped our digital in the sand the other week, so these are from a cell phone.

    Sadly, I sold due to a growing soap aquisition disorder.

    Hi, I recently bought a platypus razor and am seeking another. If you ever decide to sell, please let me know.
