    Question-whose handwriting is that on the shave soap-yours or Rod's?

    That's my handwriting. I bought an empty tub with waterproof label. The labels come without any soap titles on them. I wrote that with a big Sharpie so it's not the best looking handwriting around!

    I had My Maiden Shave Today with My Russian 5/8th 1/2 Hollow that arrived yesterday.from the Ukraine..Its Mint Man..Like Brand New..These are the Hardest Most Stubborn Steel SRs I have Ever Honed..Makes Swedish Steel as Soft as a Pussycat..Maybe Twice as Hard..Like a T 34 Tank..I Set the Bevel on the 1 K Naniwa & its Cutting Hanging Hairs before I Even Put it on the Progression..:D

    Its One Serious Commie Quality SR...Brass Pins & the Grind is Excellent..It Took a Killer Edge..The Edge Feels as Fine as a Needle..Serious Hard Steel Folks..I Kid You Not..I have Honed a Number of Vintage French SRs that are Harder than Swedish Steel...This Russian Steel is Something Else..This SR hadn't been Honed before..Factory Fresh..This SR will Hold a Killer Edge for a Very Long Time I reckon..;)

    This Russian SR Shaves as Well as any Top Shelf Solingen, Sheffield, Swedish or Japanese SR..It has a Surgically Sharp Hair like Edge & Very Smooth & Forgiving all in One Package..My 2nd Pass was Just a Polish...I had One of My Finest SR Shaves Today with this Wee Commie 5/8th...Its a Superb Shaver & a Wee Bit of Cold War History..:happy088:

    I Am Dolphin Smooth & Refreshed..:kar:

    Easy 2 pass, WTG - XTG/ATG. A couple small red spots on my Kleenex, washed off with cold water, resulting in a DFS +. Happy shaving to all.

    Ha ha ha

    The shaving addiction is a serious problem...

    I made this brush!!

    I bought an olivewood handle at ebay and a TGN Finest Badger 26mm

    Put some epoxy and cover the handle with varnish to protect from the water.

    Of course I put the varnish before the knot.
