Whoever designed the New Improved/New Deluxe handles is definitely an unsung hero

 

Excellent Doug. I wish I had a backyard view like that!

 

When the snow is gone come for a visit. Do you golf?

 

Thank you for your kind words. They are Wild Turkeys, more like Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner.

 

Excellent picture and line up Guy.

 

Good setup and photo.

 

Thank you Joseph. Did you see my post about my brother being conducted by Leonard Bernstein?

 

Excellent picture and setup.

 

Looks great Jim.

 

Great line up and photo.

 

Thank you Douglas.

 

What ever superlative comes to mind - that’s what this shave was. Easy as pie and close, close, and closer. It’s a special hone job from my friend @Billyfergie.
I’ve never had a better shave from my Nordic Queen. And that’s saying a lot.

•Clix metal head
•Feather
•VDH soap

2 pass BBS. Thought I lost this razor but it was misplaced in the move last summer. Still one of the best I ever used.

Even after 3 or 4 shaves, the Feather can still produce a few tiny weepers like no other blade can. Good shave.
