    alpla444 That's sweet!

    Today was my razors 100th birthday, As you can see the date engraved on the case of the razor (Granted its the date it was gifted to somebody 100 years ago, rather than the production date) but its still a nice piece of history.

    So I shaved with it today, just to celebrate, Its been awhile since I last used it but it did give me a BBS shave so I cant complain.

    I know there are razors older than this one and more sought after, but I just thought I'd share.
    Thanks for looking
