    Thank you Hans, here’s another Floris for you!

    Thank you Joe. I had thought I heard some Heljestrands that weren’t for export may have stayed unmarked, but not sure. And thanks for the compliment on the brush/razor combo… I did try to play off the carbon fiber. :)

    Thanks - when I shave with this razor I usually think of when I was a kid and I always wondered about the leather strop hanging on the back of the bathroom closet door in my grandparents’ house. Today I realized he’d probably be happy one of his razors was being cared for and providing a first rate shave - that would be like him :happy088:

    All Heljestrands except one that I have bought here in Sweden are marked so I really don’t know if that is the case or the reason why they sometimes left them unmarked?

    Sunday morning shave, CVH MK No.31 with Ivory scales. This is my oldest 31. Shaves like a dream! I would really like to get a 133 or another export model with broader blade.
    Splash Floris Turnbull and Asser.

    Talking about cutting your self… I managed to cut two fingers when a Global knife slipped off the cutting board, after that no cuts when shaving.

    Time for some Super Glue(Cyano Acetate). It works wonders on cuts.
