Hayashi Diamond 8000...Sweeeet citrusy shave!

Revisor 8/8

Hi guys!

Enjoyed a real straight yesterday, and had a nice shave.

Have a great week!

This was my second outing with this lovely French Frameback. Like before the reduction was not what I'd hoped for or would like. However, with more touch ups than usual I ended up with a nice shave.

Happy shaving - Karl

Tonight's shave was with a freshly honed and partially restored razor. I had a very nice 2 pass shave, that left me smooooth all over. Very nice razor. It did give me a tiny "SR Love Bite", not enough to worry about.

Razor- J.H.Obold & Co.
Brush- Vintage Boar, unknown maker. I call it "Mighty Mite".
Soap- ARKO/Avon Spicy
Aftershave- Florida Water

Very shiny!

I gave this 5 laps on the hone that came with the barber box and another 100 laps on leather. Amazing edge! 100% improved over yesterday's shave. Yeah, I caught the baby

That's a nice looking setup. The brush, razor, and strop compliment each other

I've got one of those inbound. How do you like it?

Lovely Scales on the Hayashi Diamond 8000 .Are they original ?

I love it. It is easy to maintain and takes a great edge. Very comfortable to shave with too. Plus it looks cool.

Cause they aren't taking new orders. [GRUMPY]

Eaton 85 Diamond Edge 5/8 full hollow spike

I have one as well. You'll love the thumb notch, it provides a natural grip. The shoulderless design makes it a breeze to strop. Can I ask where you got it?

Thanks. I bought it from someone on the SRP Facebook page.

Yes. All original.
