Now Eric, since you won you have to post a few pictures of your SR den. Or else you will be forever cursed in the eyes of the honing gods

Lol it's too small to fit my straight razors and a camera in there. And no, I don't have that many straight razors, the shave den is just the size of a shoebox. I will post a pic of all the completed straights and my current rock quarry when the Arkie shows up though.

I wish I could fit all my shaving implements inside a shoe-box, but what is this heretic talk?! Aren't you a member of the CEC?

Lol no heresy here. Between soaps, aftershaves, colognes, straight/DE/SE razors, razor restoration supplies, hones and brushes, I've done the C.E.C. proud. I just don't have room to put them all in one place.

I have checked out his YT channel, and you are absolutely correct there. I have a Coticule bout that I'm still learning the ins and outs of, and I'm afraid that if I got another Coti it would start an avalanche of Belgian stones that would eventually bury me lol. I've had my heart set on an Arkie for a little while, so that's the one I'd go with.

So you want the Ark?
What other stones do you have?

I would like the Ark. I currently have a select 9 Coticule bout, a set of three Welsh slates, a couple of Norton combination stones and lapping film. Thanks you again for this PIF. The post count is a great idea.

Congratulations Eric, you will certainly be putting your new stone to use. Fantastic PIF

 

[Smattayu]

Thanks everyone! Dave, we've got enough material for an hour long show already lol.

The stone arrived in the mail today. Here's a pic with the first victim, an Engstrom Red Devil. It's been ready for a finisher, but I haven't been able to get the edge the way I want it on what I've had available to me.

Many thanks again to [MENTION=75043]Dcaddo111[/MENTION] for this great PIF!

 

[David]

It looks right at home! I hope you enjoy it!

Beautiful stone Eric.

I'm hoping my balsa arrives soon, I'll post pictures when it arrives.
