Hi All
Here are some pictures of my Darwin Razor that I picked up at the post office today (I bought it off of ebay - I got home Saturday morning from work and had to wait until today/Monday morning to pick it up - I can see the post office from my place and it was torture knowing it was sitting at the post office - lol).
The blade looked like it was in excellent shape so all I did was strop it (green and red paste on a piece of balsa and stropped on a strop) and that was a mistake but at least I know I won't have to do much more to get it shave ready. I do like it better than my Rolls Razor because it is easier to strop and probably hone (I honed and stropped my Rolls Razor by hand on Saturday and it needs a little more honing or stropping but you try honing and stropping a Rolls with just your fingers - it was worth it).
Which came out first? The Darwin Razor or the Rolls Razor?
