  3. Joe, read my shave report this morning, Joe! It’s an amazing touch up stone as long as the edge isn’t too damaged! Is yours a Naniwa? :happy088:

  4. I wouldn’t say she supports it, Joe. She asked me what I wanted for Christmas! That’s about it! :)

  5. Thanks, Danny! It’s very relaxing and fun to get a straight hair-poppin’ sharp. :)

  6. Thanks, Jason! The bride is a tough lady! We have no snow or ice to speak of. It’s just danged cold, but it gives her the chance to put the cold weather bike gear I bought her to good use! :)

  9. Danny, I have a number of vintage razors that aren’t showpieces, but shave well! That’s the bottom line! I’ll follow your straight project with interest! Enjoy your day, my southern friend! :)

    You know, Danny, a great positive report on that Carbon by Dave, and good ole Clint’s a goner! Especially if he starts thinking about it later in the evening after an adult beverage or two! :D

  11. Nice score, Danny! There’s nothing like shaving with a 200 + yr old razor! :)

  12. She is not, but I belong to the Delaware Valley Bike Club. She and I have been riding with the same group of friends for the last four and a half years. I would have gone with her, but my ribs are still healing. :)
  13. It looks like a Stubtail which would also confirm its age!

    Awesome shave this morning.

    The 400 whipped up some glorious Italian ice cream this morning with a nice peppery scent. The ATT combo smoothed me out with three glorious passes.

    With all of the pottery talk and beautiful pottery that was shown yesterday I decided to break one out this morning. A flea mall find from a couple of years back. I would use it more but I am afraid I'll break it.

    Take care gentlemen and have a great Sunday.
  19. Poor Charlie, those Tabac fumes are getting to you! First we clean up and hone the razor, THEN we lather with a soap that doesn’t remind us of our grandma’s leather purse! :D

  20. I think I am good Jeff. I am ordering 2 tools for the lathe and maybe a new pistol.
