Yes they are! I had one of those and it was a remarkable shaver!

I've been having really hard time parting with few of mine, I think I still have a backup of at least three :)
Yes, I know I've got issues, but I'm at least recognizing them

This one was a "keeper" until I came across a 33. It is going to a good home. :smile:

Really? After ten passes on each side of a pasted strop (rock-hard felt, 1.0µ diamond and 0.5µ CrO2, respectively) and 25/25 on a Tony Miller Heirloom Artisan 3" Red-Latigo/Cowhide, it gave me a three-pass BBS shave! :smile:

Dunno... I sure couldn't! :redface:

[Sandcounty]

Awesome, but unfortunately I can't claim any responsibility for its nearly shave-ready condition. I never had that one on a hone. You received it just as I did. :smile:
