    Keith, I am going to have to ask you to no longer take a picture of this razor... my heart and wallet can’t take it. :)

    Tonight is Wednesday so Bartmann “Wednesday” it is.
    JR#263 whipped up the Pre de Provence wonderfully.

    :signs136: No worries Tom, I am leaving for 8 days to Thailand to do detox so you will not see this razor again for a while.

    Tonights shave was with a German made razor, that takes a Killer Edge. I had a silky smooth 2 pass shave, that left me BDBS. There were zero issues. One of my favorite razors.

    Razor- H.Boker & Co. Germany. "American Line SS ST.Louis".

    Thanks, I was lucky when I found it. I was able to save the etching when I had restored it.

    Went to Paris in 2016, took the opportunity to visit the Kindal shop because I knew that Caroline Kindal just dig out a bunch of straights sleeping in the cellar since many many many years. There were many ivory, tortoise shell and mother-of-pearl scales.
