    How elegant @Darkbulb. What razor is that?

    Thanks!
    That's a Leresche #77. Contrary to its rather menacing look it is simply one of the most efficient razors ever made without being overly aggressive.
    Had an absolutely fantastic shave this morning with it.

    Hello Folks, today's SOTD is as follows;

    Dads 1952 Gillette Black Tip Super Speed.
    1956 Gillette Blue Blade.
    Omega Travel Brush (Boar).
    Old Spice Shaving Cream.
    Nivea Post Shave Balm (unscented, sensitive).
    English Leather AS Splash.
    English Leather cologne.

    Slow to get going today. Restless. Didn't sleep well either. Was thinking of simpler times. When I was young. Thinking about dad. This shave is in his memory. I miss him. RIP Dad, say hello to mom for me. Here's the photo-

    Hello douglas, the date code is X-3, I believe that is 1952, or am I incorrect?

    A shave worthy of being done in a Valhalla barbershop.

    The RazoRock bazooka and the Maggard Razors MR8 look very similar. The MR8 is 90mm x 18mm and 180g. The bazooka is 85mm x 18mm and 158g. The MR8 has the maple leaf laser etched on the bottom of the handle . I really like how the bazooka has the logo laser etched on the cap, a lot bolder and noticeable. I would like to pick one up and try it out in the future.

    This is my middle son's favorite razor. He is built like a viking. 6'3" and close to 300 lbs of mostly muscle. Blonde / blue as well. Nothing like my wife and I. And he is only 15 years old. Lol.

    Other razors are like little toys in his ham hock hands.

    Wow! Good thing they make these chunky handles he's a big boy. The Maggards is even heftier than the RR, cool. I actually like the look of the maple leaf a lot it really pops. :happy088:
