    Wow this weekend is going by entirely too quickly. The Masamune is another one of my razors that fits into the functional piece of art category. I absolutely adore the aesthetics of the razor. The added bonus is that the razor shaves better than it looks. I am continuing to make a dent, a slow dent, in the MWF. This thing just keeps hanging on. ​

    Finally…:sick013:
    The Haslinger Schafmilch is a quality product, but I am happy to move on. Would I buy it again? Yes, but I also just got three other 3x milled pucks in the den recently, so getting the Schafmilch replaced isn’t a priority at all.
    I will take a break from a 3017 focus for a week or so, enjoy some other products, and then jump into another 3017 next week. I have two candidates.

  4. Congrats Jason! Now that the slate is clear, I'll put a Tabac puck or three in the mail if you are interested.

  5. Clint, slow and steady progress is good. You have some beautiful razors and brushes. I hope you're getting as much sunshine today as we are.

    Day Thirty-Two of the most challenging MWF 3017.
    The DG knot is one of those "gelled" (read "damaged"), similar to the TSN X LE.
    Me no likey. They "look" good, but the softness is unrealistic.
    Give me a quality, unadulterated badger knot ANY DAY OF THE WEEK.
