    Had a new toy waiting for me when I got home today. Can't wait to throw it on the hone and leather. Then it's upstairs to do the 3 S's. But first!!!! Anyone in here ever use one of these razors? It's seems to be very well made and nicely balanced. And the blade is really purdy too...:drool Almost hate to hone it. [​IMG]

    Put it to the face today. Shaves nice, feels nice. I'm happy with it. Honed up real easy. It will be in my rotation for some time. Was hard to bring myself to hone it, it looked so nice and pretty sitting in it's paper wrapper all snuggled up in the box. :rofl But I'm glad I did and it will be taken very good care of. :D

    They're for shavin', not for lookin'! But that is a beaut! I've found most of the Solingen blades, whatever "brand," take a good edge and shave very nicely.

    Found it on Ebay Bill. I think it was from Manyware, the guy in Germany. I was a bit skeptical about the buy, but now that it's in my hands I'm very happy with it. It took an edge very easily and shaves very smooth. First shave, I had to actually check to make sure that there were whiskers in the lather....:D

    You'll get good blades from Manyware. I bought one from him. Nice!
