    So I haven't bought a "New" razor in over 2 years so I broke down I snatched this one up today

    Anyone else have one???

    BTW I am planning on following the TI instructions to the letter for "Shave Ready" that should be fun ....I wonder if it will even get through one whole shave before I hone it...


    Now how long do you guys think that "Stamina Wood" is going to really stay on that razor

    Congrats!

    I am curious to see the results of your experiment. I am sure after being used to a properly honed edge the new "shave ready" won't be for you. But I am curious how it does.

    I have honed a number of these for other people, but I rarely buy a "New" razor so this time I get to mess with it myself...

    I've been looking for an angle on that wood for a while now...Way to beat me to it JoAnna...

    Now, can someone tell me...What the HECK is stamina wood? Isn't it just like a fancy word for Wood Micarta?

    OK, back on topic--Glen, man, I am seriously awaiting your review as I have ben tinking with the idea of a TI for a while now, and since the 1/4 grind le grelots are all gone and will be going for ridiculous prices soon, this one is next on my radar...


    OT:
    Wow...so...that's the shortest wikipedia article ever. Aren't there any Stamina-geeks out there just throbbing to let the internet know how awesome stamina is? Like Gundam?
