YW Jeff, I often wonder if Takagi Riki made other razors. Robuso 216 Silver Steel by Perfectworks (Tanifuji), soap was the cheap and classic La Toja, and a splash of Myrsol Blue topped off a great shave.
Tuesday morning shave, CVH MK No.31 with Ivory scales. Smooth as a peach. Splash Floris Turnbull and Asser. Skickat från min iPhone med Tapatalk
A big Filarmonica Doble Temple, almost 8/8 and a singer up today. It sings on the hone strop, and face. Doap was vintage Yardley lavender and a splash of Myrsol Agua Balsamica finished up a perfect shave.
Thanks Steve, it is a little bit rough but shave excellent. Perhaps try to polish it up. Skickat från min iPhone med Tapatalk

Nov 17 SOTN 7/8 Herder Ace of Spades I used this razor yesterday and I had to hit it with Crox during the shave. I used it tonight to check the sharpness and I had a good shave, but not my usual great shave. I probably needed to reapply Crox on my strop. I made a note to do a light honing on my lapping films before I use this razor again.
