awesome Tom..beware peril from the brush horns or the blade..

 

Thanks Gary! I’m living dangerously on a Halloween’s eve.

 

Dreifuss today, Kayser-Ellison steel and a super thin grind - you can deflect the steel near the edge with the back of a fingernail. Soap and AS were Stirling Green.

 

Thanks, Tom! Ryan @PLANofMAN was very involved in its development. It truly is a joy to shave with!

 

That’s why it is classy, TSD collaborated!

Nice shave this morning. The Cape feels a little small in my hand but is a sweet shaving blade.
