    I'd like that. Would have to work around my work schedule. We never get caught up.

    well kevin maybe we should set a day up for all of us revisor owners to shave with ours. I get pretty bored in the winter unless I go to Vegas which I may just do soon

    It was a close call for me, a Japanese frameback, a Tamahagane steel Japanese razor, a Thiers-Issard Dandy or the Revisor. I really love the Revisor you have with the black scales as well.

    Smoother? Sharper? Both? ;)

    I see he posted a few more Apaches (such as this monster below; 8.5 x 3.5). More than I wish to spend on one—considering I've two of the stratas already—a palm-sized stone and the one above in my SR photo—the one Glen us currently putting through the paces.

    Schulze 450 Thursday
    The mirror finish and the sidewalk reflection make it hard to see the faint remains of gold wash. I forget how wonderful these razors are. The oval hollow on the scales front was for a piece of mother of pearl. The MOP remains on one or two of the set. I would have liked to have seen these in their full glory.
