Gorgeous, Steve! May I ask how many razors in your collection? My son, Ben, has about 140. Just curious! You own some magnificent examples of the craft!
Thanks, Hans! I have a Klas Tornblom on its way to me! It will definitely need some restorative love!
Ohhh! Be aware that they are hard as h**l. Not the easiest to hone. But congratulations Skickat från min iPhone med Tapatalk

Yes, that razor is a looker Tom, Solingen? 6/8 Case Red Imp 133, the hollow one. Soap and AS were summer favorites and a Tulip 3 two band did the lathering. The remnants of tropical storm Ida went through yesterday and last night, and the weather patterns are supposed to get cooler and drier, so I’m looking forward to getting out some soaps and AS that reflect cooler weather!
Thank you guys! I thought this was American based on a National Razor Mfg Co out of Ohio in the early 20’s, but the trademark is different. The feel is more Japanese, very similar to the Cape 1072 I have, but I can’t find much on it.
I wonder if the Muleta was properly labeled as a Doble Temple, instead of as a Medallon Taurino, or if that was a mistake?
