Stay safe sir! User-grade King Pelican 14, testing a different nagura on the hone. Cream was SMN lathered with a Keyhole 3, and Myrsol AB finished up a oerfect shave. Apparently the nagura is a good match.

Lovely razor, Tom! I really like the blade design on that Riga! I have one, but am not wild about it. Great shave!
Thank you Jeff. I wasn't sure about the orange at first, but it has grown on me and I think it goes with the beautiful design of the blade.
Omega 45 by Perfectworks, cream and AS were AdP and the brush a Rooney. Hard to beat and I am BBS hours later.

Fresh off the stones. I had a very nice two pass shave, that left me BBS. This razor is interesting to shave with. It is a very thin razor, but very rigid. It shaves like a light Wedge Blade, but very noisy, because it is thin. Very odd to hear and feel. Zero issues with the shave. Razor- J.A.Hellberg. Eskilstuna Sweden. Ivory Scales. Brush- JR#262, Birdseye Maple/Ebony. Silvertip Badger knot Soap- AOS Kingsman. Bourbon Aftershave- Shulton Old Spice
