I absolutely agree to your statement about change and the weather.There is no holy grail razor, just like there is no real Santa Claus.
But this about Santa Claus... I did not even have lunch yet, this was such a low blow!

Who's going to bring me my holy grail razor on Christmas morning now?There is no holy grail razor, just like there is no real Santa Claus.
What? No Santa??!!$%&? Then who the heck is eating the cookies and drinking the milk I leave out?There is no holy grail razor, just like there is no real Santa Claus.
Favorite razors frequently change, as often as the weather. Change is not bad. Change can be connected to personal growth, changing preferences, or to changing circumstances.
Last week I would have picked the Merkur Futur. This week it would be the 1947 Gillette Aristocrat. Next week it may be something else.What? No Santa??!!$%&? Then who the heck is eating the cookies and drinking the milk I leave out?
Ok, no Santa. But every collector has an opinion of what their grail razor is. The properties could be rarity, popularity, design, or simply a great shave. We each have our own idea of what constitutes the "one".
If you had the choice, which razor, no matter how rare or expensive, would you pick?
Since you don't seem to have a grail razor, do you have a grail car then?Last week I would have picked the Merkur Futur. This week it would be the 1947 Gillette Aristocrat. Next week it may be something else.
An old Ford pickup, between late 30's mid 50's!
Amen. My neighbor had one, sold it.Specifically 1935 thru 1953 (no more Flatheads after that). Now that's a Grail.
Exactly. My lovely bride made me clean up my junkyard. I got rid of my 88 Toyota pickup. And my 99 Toyota pickup.... And my mopeds. Bless her heart, she did let me keep the 95? I think it is, GMC 2500 Sierra? Yeah, I think that is what it's called. 350 motor with 170,000 miles. LoL, 11 mpg in the city or in the woods. Rides like a Caddy tho.I do miss my old 1993 Toyota 4X4... my work truck for quite a few years. It was a beater but was so dependable. With a topper and a ladder rack and added leaf springs... it held all my carpentry tools.
Yes, part of the handle is a band of matte finished metal. Just another aspect of Theo's dedication to beauty and design.Hey @huck1680 (or anyone) is the part on the handle that looks "unpolished" sandblasted? Really sets it off...
