The Timeless is definitely in an elite class of razors, Rusty. I have two of them but, while both are comfortable shavers, find the 0.95 more efficient than the 0.68.

Greetings,
A enjoyable boxing day 3 pass + pick ups no-irritation silky smooth shave with no errors to report.
Maiden shave with the wickham 1912~ Classic 24 soap sample,the verdict?
Absolutely brilliant, considering the small amount i used it provided me with a wonderful protective lather for the shave, and a superb post shave feeling to my face, with a pleasant scent throughout the shave.
i've got the Irish Fern sample too, which i look forward to trying out.
I'm off out later to watch, 'not to take part in' the boxing day north sea dip!'Sheer madness'!...
This traditional mad boxing day event,you witness grown men's testicles disappear in an instant, once entering the freezing ice cold water of the north sea....But it's all in aid for our local needy charities, which is a wonderful thing.
I actually give my nieces & nephews extra money 'for themselves',just for been so brave to enter the beyond believe freezing cold sea.
.Each year they try to convince me to participate in the event, but i instantly turn into a cowardly hypochondriac and tell them that if i enter the water my 'chronic rheumatism will start playing me up ,and i can't take the risk, as i may drown'..sheer utter feeble lies, ..Their response is a rolling of eyes, and walk away in disgust..Even if we have a massive record breaking summer heat wave , it's still baltic!, ..Anyone who goes enters the north sea to swim, summer or winter, 'The lift doesn't go to the top floor'..Enough said.
Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Davidoff ~ Coolwater A/S.
My face is feeling very smooth & smelling devine.
Enjoy your boxing day, ladies & gentlemen.

I like the Midnight Stag. It has a heavy smell of leather and Hoppe's #9 gun oil. If you like that sort of thing you'll love this soap. If not, not so much.
Thank you for your kind words Ron. I hope you had a Merry Christmas!!
