1. Yesterday’s shave with the big Kropp. This is a heavy razor and gave a great shave. Somehow though, even while paying attention, I managed to get two small nicks on the chin - didn’t even notice it until they were flowing red. :shocked003:

    Pretty cool history in this name. I wanted to shave (it came shave ready) and then I had an idea for a scale swap (these are not original).

    If I don’t screw that up, I will post a quick thread. :)

    Wonderful razor and maintains an enjoyable edge.

    I think this was my first set of wood scales with the CA glue finish... fun to see how much stuff I screwed up and some of the stuff I accidentally got right. :). Holding up well.

  19. I just received my brand new Max Sprecher custom razor. It is my very first custom. It is a 10/8 blade with barber's notch, blue Paua scales and a mirror finish. I couldn't wait to have my first shave with it. It was a fun and comfortable shave! 20200601_151215.jpg 20200601_151215.jpg
  20. I had a great shave tonight with my Challenge razor works rifle razor and my oldest SE. This Kampfe Star Lather catcher is a great razor and I love the way this bullet casing handle feels and looks on this razor. The casing is from the honor guard at my Grandfathers funeral.
    I figured it was a fitting combination.
