    Excellent report Joseph. Sorry the Mayfair didn't get the wife's approval.

    Wonderful photos Danny. Initially I found the OC less smooth as well. With practice it did seem to smooth out. I think the sweet spot is smaller with the OC plate. I do agree it looks fantastic.

    Just like shrimp, we've found lots of ways to use them. Couple of times my folks got the itch for crawfish but didn't call enough folks to eat up the whole sack. So after we'd eaten our fill the rest would get shucked, bagged, and used in other meals. Mom makes a great Fettuccine Alfredo and crawfish work as well as shrimp. She tried it with store bought sauce, but now she grates Parmesan cheese, butter & heavy cream, fresh garlic for that rich home made Cajun Italian flavor. I think even Joe @Trigger might be tempted.

    Thanks Clint.. I was waiting for your input and you have confirmed my thoughts. I think the less smooth feel may be because of the "sharp" edges of the machined comb. They are not rounded slightly. Just my thoughts. Take care.

    Exactly Danny. They all tell a story of days gone by. Makes me imagine who owned them and what their life was like .

    Had some trouble with the beginning of this morning's shave. I had the "Boston Celtics Mascot"(my name for it). Green&white handle, tan knot. A Boar, I believe. But about the trouble, after what I felt was a good amount of load time, it appeared as if NO SOAP had been loaded. I think for that one(and for that matter the Burma Shave as well)I'll give it 40-50 seconds to load. I did load a bit more for the 2nd pass(I don't recall ever having to do a "2nd Load" before). Anyway, overall a fine shave for the middle day of my Stoylin Sandpiper(Soap&A.S.)threefer.

    I thought I was the only one that thought like that. This razor still had a lot of soap scum on it before I cleaned it. There was no telling how long it had been on there. Take care.

    Well what can I say, Danny....I've been here I guess about 4 years, but some areas of wet-shaving are still "lifelong learning" for me. Thanks for the encouragement :).
