    Love the scales.

    Did you pick that up at the factory? Looks brand new.

    Shoulderless Henckels! That is cool.

    Thanks. I believe this one came straight from Germany, when I ordered it.

    No, it’s a vintage Sears Craftsman. I believe it was NOS when I bought it. It’s a beauty.

    Love how the wood scales match up with the Hallows skull, very classy!

    Saturday Straights' Shave
    [​IMG]

    Cold Water Wash
    Arko
    Jayaruh #317
    Wilbert "Acme" 6/8
    CWR
    Vintage English Leather

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Arko Shaving Stick face lathered well with the Jayaruh #317 brush. I did two passes with the Wilbert "Acme" 6/8 Razor and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Vintage English Leather AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    The way the top jimps accent the shape of that tang... gorgeous! Glad it shaves as great as it looks. :eatdrink047:

    Shave #10 on the Filly edge longevity test. Soap was XPEC unscented lathered with a Simpsons 58. A splash of Lucky Tiger finished things up.

    Cheers, Steve

    Another shave with the plated razor. I had a fantastic 2 pass shave, that left me BDBS, on 2 days growth. Still going strong, and zero issues.

    Razor- The Palmer 71. Chicago.
    Brush- Wilkinson Sword Boar
    Soap- Arko/Sandalwood scented
    Aftershave- Arctic Blue.
