    nice, mike! what type of wood on the scales? in the photo, it looks similar to rosewood.

    sorry about no caps, one-hand typing a slow, arduous process...

    And as I'm pumped beyond my ability to contain myself since this lil' darling is on it's way to me, I'll just leave this here with you J-West Junkies. Not the SOTD today, but in a week or so...This one has been on my list for some time now...

    That's the one. Shot him a reasonable offer and he accepted. He has some real nice razors...wish I had more disposable income to double up on shipping!

    I got the Tanfuji Maxfli from him last night. I put a bid on the Cape Kennedy, but bid too low.

    6/8 JBF Champlin half hollow. This is another blade that I honestly can't imagine being more pleased with. So no surprise, another excellent shave this morning. :happy088:

    Just so you all know, since I'm forsaking the use of a straight razor for the next several weeks, I DO appreciate all the SR eye-candy being posted here daily….:)
