Please let us know how it shaves for you.
One last word of farewell, Dear Master and Mistress.
Whenever you visit my grave,
say to yourselves with regret
but also with happiness in your hearts
at the remembrance of my long happy life with you:
"Here lies one who loved us and whom we loved."
No matter how deep my sleep I shall hear you,
and not all the power of death
can keep my spirit
from wagging a grateful tail.

Very nice. Good luck with it.

I love mine. Yours is much nicer than mine, but it still shaves great.
I didn't surrender, they made my horse surrender though.

Terrific razors and I love those wood cases.
If the case needs some sprucing up, don't be afraid to clean it with some oil soap and then then shine it up with some paste wax.
