Beautiful razor, Karl! I’ve always admired the Engels razors. Really like the bolsters on the scales!
Gotta love those Japanese straights! I own a few, and really enjoy using them. And Baume BE is comparable to MWF in skin benefits.
Hans, I like your razor stand. Do you have a notch cut into the base to support the razor. I have a wooden stand without a notch and it can be tricky, sometimes to balance the razor.
Thanks! I thought about it when I made this stand so I took a Neodymium magnet to keep it in place. Skickat från min iPhone med Tapatalk
