What Straight Razor Did You Use Today?

Aye..Scottish Accents Don't Come Off Well on Film or Audio..Some of the Dialect's on the Mid West Coast & Glasgow are Very Rough & Ready..Including Mine..

Billy..

 

Not 100% it was for Liverpool, other factors at work.
ie... Original scales broken, I had some acrylic spare, and I had just picked up a band saw, and I had some spare time.
Worked out well, could only really do that style on a stub tail due to scale shape, so I'm happy.

I Had My Maiden Shave Tonight with My Recently Acquired NOS Kastor & Co Solingen 7/8th..I Just Honed her up the Other Day & Its Took a Real Killer Edge..Its Hard Swedish Steel & Ground in Germany..This Real Shiny Bad Boy Took a Moment to Hone which I Find Typical of Swedish Steel SRs..This SR is a Very Comfortable Shaver with a Laser Like Edge..A Couple of Passes & a Wee Spit & Polish & My Face is as Highly Polished as a Guardsman's Drill Boots..

I Am Dolphin Smooth & Refreshed..

All my clauss razors have been great shavers.

Likewise.

 

It sounds like I need to hone mine.

 

They take a great edge.

 

I'll move it to the front of the queue. Thanks.

Clauss 2002 5/8 full hollow spike
Scary sharp edge, i found the spike a few times, no blood, but it'll let you know it's there. Very close shave.
Anyone know what the numbers on the tang may mean?
