    Really starting to lean towards U.S. Steel Razors, seems like they hold an edge better than my Solingens & Sheffields and have a scary sharpness yet a buttery smoothness to them. Picked this up today and it has some red looking surface rust in a few spots that I'm quite sure will clean up nicely though. Anyone shave with one of these guys ? The scales are bone so I may have my work cut out getting them to look decent. Anyway I'm happy to get me some more U.S. Steel !!!

    battle.munky Has the menthol.munky on his back!

    I've seen that case before but it was with a different razor. Do you know if that is the right coffin?
