thank you Ron,was a fine shave..indoors....have a fine sunday..

awesome shave and pic,i am pondering on one of those sloc razors..

 

If you just want the razor head only you can buy the Yaqi Mellon head(Aliexpress), I bought mine from I.B. with a handle and I think it was under $20.00 US and that was worth ever penny spent IMO. If you find it a little mild just slip in a KAI SS extra wide-boy blade (.009"wider than a standard blade) and it is one of the best razors in my rotation. Some fellows like to take the head only and slip it on other razors base plates to make Frakenrazors.( I don't, they like to have a little fun experimenting)

 

thank you Ron,most grateful.i will probably go the I.B.route,i like shopping there...i also like mild razors..
