    Eric Anton Berg...
    My worse photo yet. Couldn't get it to focus.
    Previous owners honed it to a swooping smile near the end, so it looks awful, but shaves great.

    Probably getting a little boring but the Bema is dialed in, great shave again.

    Thanks. I'm looking into getting a MK32 or MK 10 from someone in Belgium, if I can afford it.

    Unknown French razor needing a touchup. I lost the paperwork on this one and need help identifying the maker. .. Someone on straightrazorplace and a German razor forum identified this razor from the Thier area of France, France's version of Solingen, Germany. It is a Fransique Delolme-Le Thiernos. Thier is the same area where the TI's are made. The company started in 1940 and added it's last trademark in 1949. The grind is 3/4 hollow so feels like using a wedge.

    This morning, I used my first straight razor I ever owned—a 1932-35 full hollow, dbl-shoulder Böker. Shaves nice, too!

    Yes, Clauss was looking ahead decades to his teenage Japanese girls as consumers. The pink scales meant I got the razor on the cheap. The eBay seller got zero bids on it and relisted as Buy It Now, so I bought it. I love Clauss and this is a good size and it is very pink. Makes me smile.
