    This razor fits my hand like a glove. It was effortless positioning it for every pass.
    The toe scared me at first, as it is rather sharp and pointy, but it was all bark, no bite.

    Must have had an off day, but only a DFS, with Tabac and Clubman AS.
    I am off to take pictures now, will post them as soon as I get back.

    . . . He went around back and into the basement because he was hungry. He ate cold beans out of a can and drank some water, and then he saw the small mirror Parker had bought with the razor and the can of lather. He looked at himself and knew he had to take a chance on staying long enough to shave. He shaved, and that made him feel better. . .

    In the spirit of Mr. Ellis's shop pictures, I present my SOTD for today.
    No Bill, don't worry that is as close to the dremel as your razor got.
    Hot shower followed by Tabac, bowl lathered with a Golden Nib 22 MM silvertip in an Ever-Ready handle, Pinauds Clubman AS. DFS, no weepers, no irritation.
    Bud Light Lime as the post shave draught.

    Careful you don't hurt yourself with that giant ball peen hammer! I know you use it on the pins, etc., but is that something that is sold for copper, silver, working, etc.? I've got a small one, but it looks like king kong next to that tiny one. I use it very gently when I need to slightly tighten a pin, but I'm afraid I'll get carried away just one time and bend a pin.

    It's a 4 ounce(maybe 2) that I grabbed in a RC/modeling/hobby store.
    Works great for pins.

    The World's Most Traveled Razor is now in Clayton California, in the hands of CraigJ.

    We're eagerly awaiting photos from tg16 in Louisiana, and Ambrose in Texas. C'mon men, give us something beautiful to look at from your part of our great country!

    Bill, bring it back to Texas. I would very much like to experience your work. Can I be on the list?

    I'd be more worried that it got that close to a Bud Light Lime. :9898:

    CraigJ was the final participant. I believe the razor has been returned to Bill Ellis.
