    5/8 P. Fritisse Paris

    Had a suburb shave with this Vintage French blade .I love how this hard steel holds an edge and just wipes whiskers away in difficult areas .

    Thanks guys. The scale and blade combo on this one puts it high on the “14” scale for me. Sounds pretty good in the strop also... nice thin grind.

    Such a modern classic with that design. Just picked up his book. Looking forward to reading his insight.

    That is cool.

    Did you ever do that meetup? If I wasn’t in the far other end of the country...
    That was a very generous idea and invite.

    Not enough interest and Robert ended up moving to Ireland or was going to. I ended up going to Brazil for 3 months this summer.
