Excellent, John!
That's really cool. Made me smile. I remember dad using the soap on a rope when I was a kid.Vintage Old Spice gift sets with a soap on a rope

Cool, Steve. I also got my Bakelite Alpha Ecliptic today. Knowing it was coming, I planned on a late afternoon shave so I loaded a new Personna Platinum Chrome and went to work. Head looks evil BUT ... talk about an efficient razor! Blade feel and audible feedback were quite evident but with light pressure this near weightless razor made quick, easy work of my stubble. I loved turning the razor to get a reverse blade angle. Despite blade feel and the sound of whisker destruction this slant gave me a very comfortable shave. Three passes ended with a BBS sporting glass-like skin. For me slants have been okay razors but not a top choice. This one has me looking at slants in a different light. I expect I'll be using this razor quite often.
