WOW What a nice Razor!!!! I'm not a straight razor user, but If I could get my hands on one of them I'll learn!!!! Could you point me in the right direction.

Thanx

Start with Joel's excellent guide to straight razor shaving, found here. All that is missing is you, the straight and a little patience. :biggrin:

I'm pretty sure it's this razor, in case you're interested. :)

That is it and a sweet shaving blade to boot. Perhaps not the best with which to learn, though...
