It is OCtober and I have been having fun with all my OC razors this month. I had forgotten about one until today, my Segal one-piece razor. I cleaned it up and will be shaving with it tomorrow. It is a very nice OC razor. I have a vintage Segal Blade to use in it. Here is a short video I made today.
