    Today's shave comes with an interesting story, I was asked by Mr_Smartepants AKA Erik from over on the UK forum TSR would I give the razor a shave before I sent it back after lightly restoring the razor, the razor was purchased by Erik's Father sometime during the 1950s well all I will say Erik you are in for a treat the razor gave up a flawless smooth clean shave congratulations you have a real quality shaver coming your way.

    This is my first SR. I've had it about three weeks. While I haven't had a complete shave yet, I am learning the feel of it. I look forward to being able to get a complete shave with it.
