Thank you

Finally got a nice edge on my nemisis, KT. I think the mid range honing work was my problem. Outstanding shave.

Nice!! Ive been eyeing that frameback design for a while..

Since that picture did not do justice to the pimping work on the spine made by [MENTION=6128]Seraphim[/MENTION], here is a better one

creep!

Spoiler

what is the name of a group of tortoises?
it's a bale for turtles and a creep for tortoises. I am sure they could have come up with a better name! If you have additional questions, there's a wealth of scientific information on their website. What i found was that creep is a collective noun.

Congratulations Dave, you've just started a journey without return. Soon your subconscious will require at least weakly oustanding KT shaves.

Friday's Shave
CVH MK*30 4/8

Have a Nice Friday and a wonderful weekend Gents

Ralf Aust 7/8. It's been a while since last time but when this fat Lady starts to sing it's definitely Wagner's Ride of the Walkyries. Once again I bow in respect for Herr Aust.

I received and shaved with what is probably my best razor today. I had no clean up to do and just had to hone it. It is in very good shape. I'd never heard of Crown & Sword before but it turns out it's the top of the line for ERN I think. Mine has blonde bone scales with bolsters and 6/8 blade.

It has nice weight and balance in the hand. It was a very nice shave as well.

I don't have a good place to take good photos at the moment so I'm just attaching the Ebay photo. If possible, it looks even better than the picture. It also came with the original box (not that I really care about boxes but it's rare, in my experience, for the box to match the razor).

So many fantastic razors! Thank you all for sharing. Unfortunately I've succumbed to RAD once again. It's not Dave's magnificent Koorat though.

1890's W&B near wedge. "You Lather Well, I Shave Well" about 5/8.
