Veddy nice on every front Joe.

 

Awesome shave, Joe. Hope your day was great.

 

Here are a few pics of the new oak floors. One more coat of sealer tomorrow then need to let it cure for a few days before any heavy traffic.

The two on the left are the ones I picked up Saturday. They are both date coded E1.

The one on the right is the Fatboy I have had for a while and it is date coded E2.

 

Great question, Joe. I have owned quite a few slants. Most based upon the Merkur 37C. Honestly, the slant concept is silly, because you can easily replicate it by how you angle your razor. Therefore it's unnecessary. The Fatip is no different. It's inexpensive, therefore giving one a try won't break the bank. It's well-made and easy to wield. Worth a try if you're curious.

 

That is one purdy razor you have there!

 

thank you Joe.all is well.take care..

Beautiful, Jim. I know momma is happy.

 

Thanks, guys. Momma is happy.

We had hardwood installed in the family room a couple of years ago. They did a beautiful job tying it into the existing hardwood in the kitchen and entryway.

Just Super Awesome.

 

At the good graces of one Scott @DaltonGang a very nice piece from his collection made its way for a field trip in South Central PA. just in time for a rare evening shave.

Stirling software and some brush and bowl I like to use.

Star of the show - A Beautifully restored Lakeside Cutlery, Army and Navy razor. Im told it was finished with Welsh Slate Stones, and finally an Eschers Thuringian. I was anxious to try.

My natural inquisitive natural had me check it out under a glass when I cleaned the oil off. I observed a smooth almost frosty look on bevel that I’ve read to be desirable. There were no sign of scratches, where I usually leaves some. I gave it my test with the foam packing peanut.....uh... very nice. Now I really couldn’t wait to give it a whirl.

I can not say that I’ve had a better straight razor shave. Very sharp. Very smooth. Results that exceeded my current abilities. I would have to say the performance was at least tied at the top of straight edges I have used or tested.

No one would be disappointed to own or shave with a piece like this.

No one would be disappointed with learning to hone as this piece has been done.

A big thanks to Scott for sharing.

Thanks, Bill.
