    It’s an incredible shaver, Tim! One of the truly great shaving designs!

    Thanks, Jason! Although it didn’t work for me, it might be a great transitional razor for a Cart shaver.

    That is awesome work James. Can't wait to hear how it shaves!

    Cool image Gary, love the colors & report details (just don't give me a test, haha!).

    That is a nicely posed, great blend of color with a warm toned effect Jason. Superb! Nice report & setup too!

    Understood, Jason! Thanks for the clarification. There’s something to be said for ‘blade feel’!

    Thank you for the kind words Jeff! Although I have many open blade shaves under my belt, I still have that excitement when I get great shaves from them. I will never get jaded with this style of shaving. My only regret is that I wish that I would have started straight shaving 30 yrs ago instead of starting out at age 63.

    So far so good Jeff. Worked outside last few days without the usual sneezing, itchiness, etc .

    Joe, we all have our regrets! I foolishly shaved with the same DE and kit for over 50 years. Schick Krona and Barbasol, although I did play around with different blades a bit. I wish I had known more about modern artisan razors years ago! I feel like I’m playing catch-up with many of the youngsters on the forum.

    I used it earlier this month for a face shave and it really is a great razor. However, I use it more for my headshaves. I seem to remember that Evan got an ok shave with it. I surmise that he didn't get the right angle. However, I could be wrong and that he didn't headshave with it. I can't keep track of all the comments unless they stand out like Primo's granule soaps and Paul's problems with lathering, etc.
