    Thank you, Andrew! My morning shaves before work are somewhat hurried so I figured it would be best to get a little practice in first. I'll have to loan you my Blackbird so you can do a side by side with your Dart.

    That would be cool, then I could send the Dart back with it and you could compare.

    My plan was to swap razors mid OCtober. We'll get together for lunch or something and I'll pass it off to you.

    @Screwtape

    Neal @NCoxSTL (or anybody else), I have been meaning to ask: what does Stirling Sheep smell like?

    Stirling Sheep is unscented.

    The mutton tallow soaps make a uniquely great lather. Most have failed to make it on the Max Headroom list of Most Glorious Stanks. Sheep is a great option for those not wishing to experience the "more polarizing" scents.

    Very cool razor and photo Andrew. Can you imagine how long a Personna 74 would last in that razor. Months and Months.

    Nice report Andrew. Interesting razor. Do you utilize the shaking and does it work?

    Focus Gear: B&M Reserve Spice
    Once again the Jabonman Vetiver de Haiti leads off with a single...
    The Ball-End '64, making a miraculous return from the last "old-timers' day", sacrifices the runner to second.
    Personna 74 hits a long fly ball to right, moving the runner to third.
    Runner at third, two outs.
    Batting clean up is the B&M Reserve Spice.
    Long fly ball to left. Back, back, back, back....
    Caught for third out.    ​

    Thanks, Clint!
    Thanks Joseph! I've never tried it. It was designed to sharpen carbon steel blades and reports that I've seen said that it didn't work well with stainless blades. Unfortunately I haven't met a CS DE blade that I liked.
