    I just got through painting the numbers. Here it is ready to go for tomorrow: The color I picked for the razor was "Desert Sage". It is a desert camo color. Oh and if you are concerned, the date code and other markings are still readable on the razor after coating.

    I just got through with shaving with my Tactical Slim. I put in a new Bolzano Superinox and dialed it to "7" for the first two passes and "5" for the final ATG pass. Result: one of my best closest shaves! This razor is better than I remember. Very nice.

    Guns and razors, now this is good stuff!

    Nice Kimber and Fat Boy, Weeper Warrior. I have a Kimber Solo that spends a lot of time in my front pocket.

    I wonder if I can find someone in Portugal, able to make this kind of coating. :)

    Just be sure to keep all CATS out of the room when using that razor! ;)

    Hey Glen,

    Just curious...How has the coating and razor held up? Internal parts and TTO knob still seem to be working well? I am thinking of having a set done at some point.

    Thanks,

    Chris

    Hi Chris & All,

    The coating is holding up great. I have a rotation of about 8 or 9 favorites of which it is one but it still doesn't see a super lot of use because I have so many. But its right up there and no problems yet.

    Cool...I have a Fatboy and Slim combo I may get coated sometime early next year. I'll be sure and post them if I go ahead with the coating!
